3001 Pine St, San Francisco, CA 94115

The three-story, seven-unit multi-family residential building at 3001 Pine Street in Lower Pacific Heights, owned by Antonio & Rita Castellucci, has a long history of maintenance and compliance issues since its construction in 1904. Most notably, the building is currently classified as a Non-Compliant Tier 3 property under San Francisco's Mandatory Soft Story Retrofit Program, with complaints filed in both 2022 and 2017 regarding uncompleted seismic retrofit work. A cancelled permit from 2020 for a $90,000 soft story retrofit further underscores this ongoing compliance issue.

The building has experienced several significant maintenance challenges, including a water main emergency in 2022, multiple fire alarm system concerns (including a recent 2024 fire complaint), and various stairway-related violations dating back to 2004 that required repairs and multiple permits to address. The property has undergone several substantial improvements over the years, including kitchen and bathroom renovations in 2007 (Units 3 & 8), reroofing projects in 1989 and 2003, and the replacement of a wall heater in 2016. Building violations from 2004 related to fire safety systems (including fire extinguishers and smoke detectors) were eventually abated in 2008, along with various stairway repairs.

Recent 311 calls from 2023-2025 indicate ongoing issues with street cleaning, graffiti, and pavement defects in the surrounding area, though these are external to the building itself. While the building has had multiple fire department responses over the years, including incidents involving electrical equipment, gas leaks, and water leaks, none have resulted in civilian injuries. The most recent fire alarm system complaint from 2024 was resolved with conditions corrected by April 2024.
