121-125 Pierce St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The 3-unit multi-family residential building at 121-125 Pierce Street in Hayes Valley, owned by the Josefa Kabahit Family Trust, has a significant maintenance history since its construction in 1900. Most notably, in 2020, the building underwent major repairs including removal of siding to address dry rot issues and replacement of the rear egress staircase, totaling over $58,000 in improvements. The property has experienced recurring plumbing issues, with multiple water heater replacements documented between 2016 and 2022, and more recently, work on cast iron piping for dishwashers in 2020.

Structural improvements have been made over the years, including the installation of a steel moment frame in 2003 and repairs to fungus-damaged mudsills in 2000. The building has faced several safety and compliance challenges, particularly evident during routine housing inspections in 2002 and 2008, which identified issues with fire extinguishers, combustible storage, and egress obstructions - all of which were subsequently resolved. A gas leak incident was recorded, though no civilian injuries were reported.

Recent years have shown ongoing maintenance concerns, with multiple instances of graffiti reported in 2023-2024, and three recent complaints about excessive noise, garbage, and debris in late 2024. While there were some fire safety violations in 2013 related to hazardous materials and combustible materials, records indicate these conditions were corrected. The building's historical permit and violation records suggest regular maintenance and repair work, with most issues being addressed promptly through appropriate permits and inspections.
