3131-3133 Washington St, San Francisco, CA 94115

The property at 3131-3133 Washington Street in Pacific Heights is a 2-story, 5-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1900, currently owned by the Helen G Delevois Estate In Trust. The building has undergone several significant safety and maintenance upgrades over the past two decades, with the most recent being a comprehensive fire alarm system replacement and upgrade in 2021 that included the installation of new detectors, strobe sounders, and control units at a cost of $19,800.

The building experienced multiple sewer-related issues in 2013, with at least eight documented incidents of sewage backup or flooding, primarily through a 4-inch vent, though these appear to have been resolved through municipal intervention and flushing of the system. Other notable maintenance work includes a roofing project completed in 2006 costing $26,850, dry rot repairs in 2002, and a sewer line replacement permit issued in 2012.

The building underwent a routine safety inspection in 2014 and had several violations documented in 2002 related to building safety and security requirements, including issues with exterior doors, stairs, and gas meter instructions, though all these violations were abated by January 2003. While historical records show some concerns over the years, particularly regarding sewer issues, the most recent fire safety upgrades and the absence of active violations suggest improvements in building maintenance and safety compliance. The property has had minimal recent issues reported through 311 calls, with the most recent being a resolved case from December 2024 regarding glass debris on the street, and a temporary abandoned vehicle case from 2018 that was resolved when the vehicle was no longer present.
