3-5 Parsons St, San Francisco, CA 94118

The three-story, four-unit multi-family residential building at 3-5 Parsons Street in Lone Mountain, owned by the Moon Tang Wong Bypass Trust, was constructed in 1907 and has undergone several significant maintenance and infrastructure improvements over its lifetime. Most recently, in August 2023, the building received a complete reroofing at a cost of $13,000, marking the latest in a series of roof-related works that began with a reroofing project in 1992.

The property underwent important plumbing updates in February 2014 with the replacement of clay sewer lines and installation of new sewer piping, demonstrating commitment to maintaining critical infrastructure. Historical records show compliance-related work was completed in 1986, and in 2000 there was a rear stair repair project, though this permit ultimately expired. The building has been subject to routine safety inspections by Housing Inspection Services in 2003, 2009, and 2017, none of which indicated ongoing concerns as they are all listed as not active.

While the building itself appears to be maintained according to required standards, the immediate vicinity has experienced numerous sanitation challenges in recent months, with multiple 311 calls regarding garbage and debris between March and December 2024, including reports of furniture, yard waste, and other loose garbage. These external issues, while not directly affecting the building's habitability, may impact the immediate environment around the property. The most recent street-related matters were primarily resolved through appropriate agency intervention, though some cases were marked as private property issues or had no work needed upon inspection.
