3679-3681 16th St, San Francisco, CA 94114

The property at 3679-3681 16th Street is a two-unit, two-story multifamily residential building located in San Francisco's Duboce Triangle neighborhood, built in 1900 and currently owned by the Harold Horowitz Living Trust. The building's maintenance history shows several significant improvements, including a seismic retrofit attempt in 1990 (permit expired), kitchen cabinet renovations in both units in 1988, and a reroofing project completed in 1993.

More recently, in 2012, work was performed to extend gas houselines for both units, though this permit has since expired. The property has experienced several maintenance and safety issues in recent years, with the most pressing concern being an open sidewalk defect reported in August 2024 related to tree root lifting. In June 2024, there was a noise complaint, and in January 2024, a Rent Board fee and housing inventory inquiry was resolved.

The building has also faced recurring issues with graffiti, particularly in September 2023 and most recently in November 2024, as well as multiple instances of parking violations near the property. A notable incident was recorded in June 2021 when combustible materials were reported, though this condition was corrected within six days. While the property has undergone various improvements over the years, the recent pattern of minor violations and maintenance issues suggests ongoing attention is required to maintain resident quality of life and building safety.
