3042-3048 Octavia St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The three-story multi-family residential building at 3042-3048 Octavia Street in Cow Hollow, built in 1911, has undergone several significant improvements in recent years, most notably the 2021 installation of 11 energy-efficient windows at the building's front, replacing older single-pane aluminum units. The property received substantial mechanical upgrades in 2022 with the installation of a new Mitsubishi heat pump system. The building has a documented history of various renovations, primarily focusing on unit improvements including multiple kitchen remodels between 2007-2017 and window replacements, particularly in 2009 when unit 3046 received updates to its kitchen and half-bath facilities.

The electrical systems have also been consistently modernized, with recent work including new lighting, switches, and circuits during the various kitchen renovation projects. The building's maintenance history reveals some past concerns, particularly during the 2002-2007 period, when multiple building violations were recorded, including issues with window hardware, egress obstructions, and interior surfaces. However, all these violations were officially abated by May 30, 2007.

Since then, the property has maintained a relatively good record, with recent inspections focusing primarily on routine maintenance and system upgrades. The building has experienced minimum safety incidents, with only a few smoke detector activations and one power line issue recorded in fire incident reports, none of which resulted in injuries or significant damage. Recent 311 calls have mostly related to exterior issues such as parking enforcement and tree maintenance rather than building-specific problems, suggesting improved overall building conditions.
