435 Euclid Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

The 24-unit apartment building at 435 Euclid Ave, owned by the Bernard Family Trust, is a three-story multi-family residential structure built in 1955 that has undergone several significant improvements and faced various maintenance challenges over its history. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2016 (Tier 2) at a cost of $260,000, demonstrating compliance with seismic safety requirements. A recent fire violation was issued in November 2023 regarding sleeping area requirements, which is currently open.

The property has experienced multiple renovation projects, including a significant $30,000 unit #8 renovation in 2020-2021 involving kitchen and bathroom updates, while planning records indicate a proposed addition of 6 ADUs at the ground floor. The building has had several routine inspections and violations over the years, with a major cluster of issues identified in 2008, including water damage, fire safety concerns, and building maintenance items, all of which were abated by 2014. Recent maintenance activities include handling various plumbing and electrical updates, such as a gas line test in 2015 and the installation of battery-powered exit/egress lights in 2006.

The building's support systems have been regularly maintained, though there was a period of concern regarding boiler permits in 2013 that was subsequently resolved. The property has experienced typical urban challenges as evidenced by 311 calls, including sidewalk access issues, parking concerns, and occasional flooding, most recently recorded in December 2023. While the building has had several false fire alarms and assistance calls recorded, these incidents did not result in injuries or major safety concerns.
