The three-story, two-unit multi-family residential building at 2739-2741 Octavia Street in Cow Hollow, owned by Royee Chen 2008 Revoc Tr, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1932. The most recent major work involved the replacement of two furnaces in July 2017, which included new furnace circuits for both units. The property has seen substantial upgrades to its infrastructure, including a complete change to underground electrical service in 2003, and a vertical addition completed in 1996 costing $130,000.

Earlier improvements from the 1980s included the installation of three skylights, joists, beams, and a stud wall, as well as kitchen renovations with new cabinets and counter space. Several permits from the 1990s, including for fire sprinklers and kitchen cabinets replacement, are listed as expired. The building's recent history shows no major structural or safety concerns, though there has been one recorded building fire incident with unintentional ignition cause and no civilian injuries.

The property has experienced recurring issues with parking enforcement, particularly in 2023-2024, with multiple citations issued for driveway blocking, though these incidents typically resulted in citations rather than any direct impact on the building's condition or resident safety. A sidewalk defect related to tree root uplift was reported in September 2024 and remains open. The building's maintenance record shows regular updates to essential systems, with no documented code violations or safety concerns in recent history, suggesting proper upkeep of the property and compliance with current building requirements.
