3051-3055 California St, San Francisco, CA 94115

The 5-unit multi-family residential building at 3051-3055 California Street in Lower Pacific Heights, constructed in 1900 and classified as a TIC Bldg with 4 units or less, has undergone significant renovations and improvements over the past decade. Most recently, in May 2024, the building received a complete re-roofing at a cost of $31,750.

The property completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2015, installing shearwalls and moment frames at a cost of $60,000, and has since maintained compliance with seismic safety requirements. Major recent improvements include the replacement of 57 windows and doors (2014-2015, $170,725), exterior siding replacement (2014, $327,078), and extensive unit renovations including kitchen and bathroom remodels in multiple units between 2011-2012, with plumbing and electrical work properly documented and completed. The building has a notable history of construction-related complaints, particularly during 2008-2012, primarily concerning paint removal, lead hazards, and asbestos concerns, though all these issues were eventually abated.

Earlier violations from 2001 related to security and fire safety requirements were also resolved. The most recent housing-related interactions involve typical rental issues, including parking enforcement calls (2021-2024) and a 2023 complaint regarding rent board fee housing inventory matters. The building's maintenance record shows consistent attention to structural and safety requirements, with only routine maintenance and parking enforcement issues persisting in recent years, suggesting improved management and compliance with building codes and tenant safety standards.
