1209-1213 3rd Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The property at 1209-1213 3rd Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood is a 3-story, 4-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1907, currently owned by the Dwp 2012 Irrevocable Trust. The building has undergone several significant improvements over recent years, most notably a 2013 soft-story retrofit project valued at $60,000, though its permit expired without documented final inspections. The property has seen substantial interior upgrades including multiple kitchen remodels (2013, 2014, 2019) across different units, bathroom renovations, and the installation of modern amenities such as a tankless water heater.

In 2021, work was filed for additional kitchen flooring and improvements in the rear unit, though the permit cost was listed as $0. The building has maintained reasonable compliance with safety standards, though it was classified as Non-Compliant under Tier 3 of the city's mandatory seismic retrofit program. Historical records show a cluster of building violations in 2005 (all resolved by 2006), primarily related to fire safety and security issues, including problems with fire extinguishers, handrails, and stairs.

More recent complaints have been addressed, including a 2019 issue regarding construction dust from marble cutting and various maintenance matters through 311 calls in 2021-2022 related to graffiti, street cleaning, and illegal parking. The building has received several plumbing and electrical upgrades, including new gas lines in 2014 and comprehensive electrical work in 2013 for various modern installations. While the property has a documented history of maintenance and improvements, prospective tenants should note the building's unresolved soft-story retrofit compliance status as a noteworthy consideration.
