3135 Pacific Ave, San Francisco, CA 94115

The 6-unit multi-family residential building at 3135 Pacific Avenue in Pacific Heights, owned by Kao Chung Cheng & Lin S C Rev, has undergone several significant maintenance and safety-related improvements over its history, with the most substantial work occurring in 2014. During that year, Unit 3 experienced major renovations including mold remediation, floor replacement, and electrical system upgrades including a new furnace installation with comprehensive electrical work totaling over $35,000. The building had some safety violations in March 2004 related to fire safety and smoke detection, including issues with fire escape ladders and fire extinguishers, but these were all resolved by May 2004.

A cancelled permit in 2008 for a proposed elevator installation suggests it was not completed, and historical records from 1992 indicate previous repairs for wood decay in the siding and window installations. Recent concerns around the property primarily involve external maintenance issues, with multiple 311 calls between late 2024 and early 2025 regarding garbage and debris on nearby streets, though these are municipal rather than building-specific issues. The building has experienced several carbon monoxide detector activations between 2015 and 2016, all of which were verified as false alarms with no reported injuries.

A significant 2024 response involved the external sidewalk collapsing, which remains an open case as of October 2023. The most recent activity on record involves complaints regarding encampments and debris in the vicinity of the building, though these are external to the property itself and are being handled by city services. While the building has a history of maintenance issues from earlier decades, including a 1986 "bring into code" permit, the major systems upgrades in 2014 suggest that many core building systems have been addressed, though the persistence of external debris issues indicates ongoing challenges with the immediate surroundings of the property.
