3445-3455 Pierce St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The three-story, 30-unit apartment building at 3445-3455 Pierce St, owned by Blaine 1977 Revoc Tr and located in the Marina neighborhood, was constructed in 1927 and is classified as a Multi-Family Residential building with 15 or more units. The property has undergone significant safety and modernization upgrades in recent years, most notably a comprehensive fire life safety system upgrade in 2022 costing $45,000, which included the installation of low frequency horns and a new fire panel.

The building has a completed Soft Story retrofit under Tier 4 requirements, demonstrating compliance with seismic safety standards. Between 2017 and 2020, multiple unit renovations were completed, including kitchen and bathroom remodels in units 104, 105, 202, and general building improvements such as the replacement of boilers and water heaters, electrical system updates, and plumbing upgrades. The property has experienced several fire safety-related incidents and complaints, mostly involving alarm system activations, smoke detector malfunctions, and false alarms, though most were determined to have no merit or were promptly corrected.

Historical records from 2000 show temperature control and egress obstruction issues that were resolved, and there was a boiler operation permit violation from 2020 that appears to have been addressed. Recent maintenance and service requests from 2023-2025 show typical urban dwelling issues, primarily related to parking enforcement and street cleaning matters. While there have been periodic fire alarm issues, the building's recent safety upgrades and prompt response to maintenance concerns suggest active management of resident safety and comfort.
