AI summary

The property at 3234-3236 Clay Street in Pacific Heights is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Gian Marco & Camille Martin. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years, with the most recent being a comprehensive window replacement project in 2018 that involved 29 sets of double-hung sashes at a cost of $32,000. Prior to that, the property experienced sewer-related infrastructure work, including repairs in 2014 and modifications with a new sand trap installation in 2016, along with electrical upgrades to support a garage opener and lighting installation completed in 2016.

The property's garage addition has an interesting history, with initial permit applications in 2015 showing a proposed $100,000 project, though these permits were ultimately cancelled. Multiple planning records indicate various attempts to establish a two-car garage on the property, with some projects marked as "Under Review" and others having reached "Closed - Informational" status, particularly regarding tree removal considerations. The building's recent history has seen a notable pattern of parking-related issues, with 11 documented incidents between 2018 and 2024, including sidewalk parking violations and abandoned vehicle reports, though these are external to the building itself. Other recent external issues include a noise complaint in May 2024 and a curb defect reported in December 2023, which remains open. The building has received regular maintenance updates, particularly focusing on plumbing infrastructure, as evidenced by the multiple permits for sewer line work, though some older permits, such as a kitchen and bath remodel from 1985, are no longer active.

Risk rating

How 3234-3236 Clay St's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of SF DBI inspection data — notice of violation filings, complaint history, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that DBI inspectors will issue a Notice of Violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.
