54 Terra Vista Ave, San Francisco, CA 94115

54 Terra Vista Avenue is a four-unit, four-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1951, currently owned by Eva Chao. The property has undergone several significant improvements and faced various maintenance challenges over its history. Most notably, in 2016, the building was subject to a routine safety inspection that revealed multiple violations, including the need for stair repairs, fire safety improvements, and carbon monoxide alarm installations; all of these issues were subsequently abated by November 2016.

Recent maintenance work includes stucco repairs completed in 2017 and a gas houseline extension in 2020, demonstrating ongoing upkeep of the building's infrastructure. The building has seen substantial interior improvements over the years, particularly in 2006-2008 when units 1 through 3 received comprehensive kitchen and bathroom renovations, including new cabinets, fixtures, and electrical systems. Unit 4 underwent similar updates in 2008, including kitchen and bathroom modernization along with electrical panel replacement and comprehensive rewiring.

Earlier maintenance records show roof work in 2002, including railing replacement and roof replacement. The property has maintained periodic safety inspections since 2000, with each inspection generally resulting in necessary repairs being completed, though one expired permit from 2002 regarding roof railing replacement is noted. Recent years have generated several 311 calls primarily related to parking issues and street maintenance near the property, though these external matters do not directly affect the building's condition or resident safety.
