3100 California St, San Francisco, CA 94115

The two-story multi-family residential building at 3100 California Street in Pacific Heights, owned by James Eng Ltd Partnership, was constructed in 1900 and contains three units. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement works in recent years, most notably a new roof installation in 2023 costing $35,850, following previous roof repairs and insulation upgrades completed in 2019. Recent improvements include accessibility modifications completed in late 2023 under the Accessible Business Entry program, involving new doors and signage.

The building has a concerning history of maintenance issues, with a serious complaint filed in 1998 regarding lead paint problems, wall damage, and electrical concerns, and more recent issues with peeling paint noted in 2012. The electrical sign installation project from 2008 was cancelled, though it's unclear if this was related to previous electrical issues. The surrounding area has experienced various urban challenges as evidenced by multiple recent 311 calls, including reports of graffiti, illegal parking, and garbage issues, particularly in 2023 and 2024.

While these external factors don't directly impact the building's condition, they provide context to the neighborhood environment. The building has experienced two fire department responses, though neither incident involved civilian injuries or indicated significant structural concerns. The property's historical records show pattern of cyclical maintenance, particularly regarding the roof, with previous re-roofing work recorded in 1992 and 1998. Despite the periodic issues noted in past complaints, recent improvements suggest ongoing maintenance and upgrading of the building's systems and accessibility features.
