3021 Anza St, San Francisco, CA 94121

The 5-unit, 3-story apartment building at 3021 Anza St in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by the Lui Family Trust and constructed in 1912, has undergone several significant structural and safety-related improvements over the past decade. Most recently, in July 2023, the building received partial foundation repairs costing $60,000, and in August 2022, underwent repairs including new mudsill installation and anchoring improvements in the left-hand side hallway. There were historical seismic concerns, with a soft-story retrofit permit filed in 2017 for $90,000, though this permit was cancelled.

A subsequent citation in October 2019 specifically addressed non-compliance with the Mandatory Soft Story Retrofit Program, though this violation was marked as abated by December 2021. The building's maintenance history shows attention to various structural and safety issues, including reroofing in 2017 ($8,800) and earlier significant interior improvements in 1991, which included kitchen cabinet replacements in four units and bathroom renovations. The building has experienced some fire safety-related concerns, particularly evident in a 2004 routine inspection that identified multiple violations including egress obstructions and fire proofing issues, though these were subsequently abated in October 2004.

Further historical records indicate inspections for illegal rental units in 1994 and 1996, which were resolved. The property has also faced recurring issues with garbage receptacle management, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls between 2008 and 2011 regarding bins being left out continuously. All recent major structural work, including this year's foundation repairs, suggests ongoing efforts to maintain and upgrade the building's safety and livability standards.
