3038 Anza St, San Francisco, CA 94121

The two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 3038 Anza Street in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Henry Chu, has a history dating back to its construction in 1910. The property has experienced various maintenance and compliance issues over recent years, most notably a significant building complaint in October 2011 regarding unauthorized construction work in the garage involving cement cutting and wall modifications, though this complaint was abated by early November 2011.

While building permits are sparse, a street space and sidewalk permit was issued in March 2010 for a minimal cost of $1.00. The property has undergone numerous environmental and safety-related incidents and maintenance issues, including tree-related concerns in 2022-2020 where one case involved overgrown trees near communication lines and another addressed tree roots lifting the sidewalk, though both were determined not to be urgent safety hazards.

Parking-related issues have been frequent, with numerous complaints about sidewalk parking between 2017-2024, including multiple cases in 2024, and instances of abandoned vehicles. The building's safety systems were tested in the past, with one recorded smoke detector activation incident that was determined to be unintentional and resulted in no civilian injuries, and a 2006 fire complaint regarding combustible materials that was found to have no merit. The property's location has required periodic street cleaning in response to loose garbage and hazardous materials, with the most recent such incident recorded in March 2020 involving glass on the street or sidewalk.
