3225 Market St, San Francisco, CA 94114

The two-unit residential building at 3225 Market Street in the Eureka Valley/Dolores Heights neighborhood is a two-story flats and duplex structure owned by the Thomas C Aspell Trust, dating back to 1908. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, with the most substantial renovations occurring in 2007, when the kitchen was remodeled, electrical systems updated, and a new attic furnace installed with ductwork. This $30,000 renovation included the installation of energy-efficient fluorescent lighting, new electrical components including a sub-panel, lighting, switches, receptacles, and circuits, as well as a new water heater.

More recent maintenance includes a complete reroofing project in 2008 costing $15,560, and the application of Alcoa siding to the exterior in 1984. The building's history includes a notable complaint from 2005 regarding unauthorized occupancy of the garage, which was ultimately resolved in 2007. In recent years, there have been multiple 311 calls regarding the property's exterior and immediate vicinity, primarily related to graffiti (with incidents reported in 2022, 2023, and most recently in November 2024), and various sanitation issues including garbage, debris, and an abandoned refrigerator.

A fallen tree incident was reported and resolved in October 2024. The most recent building-related complaints have been primarily focused on exterior maintenance and street cleaning issues, rather than structural or safety concerns. The property's maintenance record shows regular upkeep of major systems, though the recurring graffiti incidents and exterior maintenance calls suggest ongoing challenges with building periphery maintenance. The most recent building permit records available are from 2008, which is notable given the typical frequency of maintenance and improvements required for older residential buildings.
