38 Prado St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The 12-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 38 Prado Street in the Marina, owned by Roger & Laura Pessah Revoca, has undergone significant recent improvements and modernization efforts since 2018. Major building upgrades include the completion of a soft-story retrofit in 2018 (Tier 4), the addition of three ground-floor ADUs in 2019-2023, and recent fire safety improvements with a completed fire alarm system upgrade (2023) and fire sprinkler system installation (2019) to comply with current safety codes. The building has received various plumbing and electrical upgrades, including a 400-amp service upgrade and new meters in 2023, though some permits show as expired or were converted to continuation permits.

Multiple violations were recorded in 2019 concerning interior surfaces, electrical fixtures, and fire proofing, along with concerns about lead-based paint, though these violations were subsequently abated. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, including reroofing work in 1996 and 2015, and various unit improvements such as a kitchen and bathroom remodel in Unit 3 (2018). While there have been several fire safety and alarm system complaints between 2018-2024, all were either found to have no merit or were promptly corrected.

Recent plumbing work in 2023 involved completing and passing inspections on previously unfinished work. The property has experienced multiple 311 calls primarily related to parking issues and occasional maintenance concerns, though most were successfully resolved. A 2023 violation regarding non-compliant windows in the new ground-floor ADUs has been documented and was addressed through permit 202304045061 to replace them with code-compliant windows.
