1034-1040 Divisadero St, San Francisco, CA 94115

The three-story, six-unit apartment building at 1034-1040 Divisadero Street, owned by W A I Llc, has undergone significant maintenance and upgrades since its construction in 1900, with particular attention to seismic safety in compliance with San Francisco's Soft Story Ordinance. The property is classified as a Multi-Family Residential building, with a documented Tier 3 soft-story retrofit completed in 2017 at a cost of $120,000. Recent improvements include various plumbing and electrical upgrades (2014-2015) involving kitchen and bathroom renovations across multiple units, rear stair repairs in 2016, and some street space permits in 2018-2019.

The building has a history of maintenance issues that have required attention, including a notable cluster of violations and complaints in 2002 related to electrical connections, fire safety equipment, and structural elements, all of which were abated by November 2002. Earlier concerns from 1996-2014 included various habitability issues such as peeling paint, plumbing problems, and safety concerns, though these were addressed through subsequent repairs and upgrades. The property's maintenance history shows ongoing attention to safety and livability, with multiple kitchen and bathroom renovations, electrical system upgrades including Ufer ground installation in 2018, and various plumbing improvements.

Recent incidents have been primarily cosmetic or external in nature, such as graffiti (2023), noise complaints (2023), and some parking enforcement issues (2022). The building's historical records reveal a pattern of addressing both routine maintenance and more significant structural and safety improvements, with no active violations or open complaints at present. The most recent documented work completed includes the seismic retrofit and various system upgrades, though periodic 311 calls suggest ongoing management of external maintenance issues.
