423 34th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The property at 423 34th Avenue in San Francisco's Outer Richmond neighborhood is a 2-story, 6-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1962, currently owned by the Araj Marital Trust. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past three decades, with the most recent major upgrade being a voluntary fire alarm system improvement in 2022 costing $15,000 to comply with fire code requirements.

Of particular note is the completed soft-story seismic retrofit performed in 2016, which included the installation of steel moment frames, tie beams, and shear walls at the ground floor, demonstrating the property's adherence to modern safety standards. In 2014-2015, units 3 and 4 underwent substantial renovations including kitchen and bathroom updates, with corresponding plumbing and electrical work completed.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural integrity, with dry rot repairs addressed in 1995 and 1996, and historical records indicate past fire safety violations in 2004 related to smoke enclosure doors and combustible storage, all of which were resolved by October 2004. While there has been a recurring pattern of driveway blocking incidents reported through 311 calls from 2020 to 2023, these are external issues not directly related to building management or maintenance. The property has received regular inspections, including routine housing inspections in 1999 and 2004, with all identified issues having been properly abated.
