3465 Sacramento St, San Francisco, CA 94118

The three-story, 12-unit multi-family residential building at 3465 Sacramento St in Presidio Heights, owned by 3465 Sacramento Street LLC, has undergone several significant safety and maintenance improvements since its construction in 1904. Most notably, the building recently received an upgrade to its fire alarm system in April 2024 to comply with current fire code requirements, including the installation of low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas to meet 75dB requirements. The building completed its mandatory seismic retrofit work in 2017, achieving compliance with the city's earthquake safety program.

There have been ongoing maintenance issues, particularly with heating systems, as evidenced by an active violation from 2002 regarding inadequate heat in occupied rooms, with a similar complaint about heating problems and non-functioning windows in 2022. The building has also experienced moisture-related issues, with documented mold complaints in 2014 and 2022, though these cases are now listed as not active. The property has maintained regular upkeep of its infrastructure, including multiple reroofing projects (1997 and 2012), and the addition of rear decks in 1985 and 2006.

Fire safety concerns have been addressed promptly when reported, including a 2015 complaint that was found to have no merit and a 2009 alarm system issue that was corrected. The building's exterior and surrounding area have experienced typical urban maintenance issues, as shown by various 311 calls regarding sidewalk defects (most recently in 2023), though these are municipal rather than building-specific matters. The property's maintenance record shows a pattern of addressing both routine and urgent maintenance needs, with particular attention to structural safety and fire systems compliance, while some recurring issues related to heating and moisture suggest ongoing challenges in these areas.
