147 Crown Ter, San Francisco, CA 94114

The three-story, nine-unit multi-family residential building at 147 Crown Terrace in Clarendon Heights, owned by Darren & Valerie H Lee Revo and built in 1951, has undergone several significant improvements and renovations over the past decades. Most recently, in 2024, the building completed a mandatory fire alarm system upgrade to comply with SFFC requirements at a cost of $32,300, and is currently scheduled for reroofing work costing $8,500. The building previously completed a soft-story retrofit in 2017 at a cost of $25,000, demonstrating compliance with seismic safety requirements.

The property has a history of both unit-specific and building-wide improvements, including several apartment renovations (Units 2, 3, 5, 6, and 8) involving kitchen and bathroom updates between 2008 and 2022. However, there are several active concerns that warrant attention, particularly a cluster of fire safety violations from January 2024 regarding combustible storage, lead paint concerns, and sprinkler system issues. The building has experienced multiple fire safety inspections and violations over the years, with the most recent being in October 2024 regarding alarm systems, though most previous violations have been corrected.

The property was previously involved in illegal short-term rental activity, which has since been resolved through a settlement agreement. Recent 311 calls from December 2024 to January 2025 indicate ongoing issues with garbage and debris management around the property, though most of these cases have been resolved. The building's maintenance record shows regular upkeep, including a significant bedroom and bathroom addition to Unit 2 in 2022, but the presence of multiple active fire safety violations suggests ongoing challenges with meeting current safety standards. The property has maintained its original configuration as a 9-unit building, with multiple parking spaces available, though there has been speculation about potential expansion opportunities.
