2936-2938 Divisadero St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The three-story, two-unit building at 2936-2938 Divisadero Street, constructed in 1922 and currently owned by the Mona Geller Survivors Trust, has undergone several significant renovations and maintenance projects over the past decade. Most notably, in 2018-2019, extensive interior remodeling was completed including a kitchen relocation to create an additional bedroom, new bathroom facilities, and the installation of two gas fireplaces with associated utility work, at a total cost of approximately $168,000. The building's chimney systems were upgraded in 2019 with the installation of a metal Class A chimney system to replace outdated terra cotta flue tiles, costing $10,000.

More recent work includes a bathroom remodel in 2021, valued at $11,000, which incorporated updated lighting compliant with California energy codes. The property has experienced several maintenance issues requiring attention, including a 50% roof deck repair for dry rot in 2013, and a water intrusion incident in 2008 that affected the neighboring property. Security and safety systems have been a recurring focus, with firewall systems activated multiple times for unintentional reasons, including smoke detector activations and system malfunctions, though no actual fires or injuries have been reported.

A recent fire violation was issued and subsequently abated in December 2023 related to alarm system maintenance. The building's historical permit records also show various other improvements and repairs, including roof work in 1998, staircase modifications in 1994, and bathroom remodeling in 1992, demonstrating regular upkeep of the property over the years. While there have been several complaints about construction noise and recent parking issues near the property, these appear to be typical neighborhood concerns not directly related to the building's structure or safety systems.
