3579 19th St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The 6-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 3579 19th Street in Mission Dolores, owned by Jurgensen & Weidmann Family, has undergone several significant improvements and maintenance work since its construction in 1912. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2014-2015 as a Tier 3 property, ensuring compliance with seismic safety requirements.

Recent improvements include the installation of new washer and dryer facilities in 2017, while previous upgrades included comprehensive renovations to Unit #6's bathroom and kitchen in 2013, voluntary ground floor strengthening work in 2012, and multiple electrical improvements over the years (including kitchen circuit upgrades and laundry wiring installations). The building underwent a routine inspection in 2001 that generated several violations related to fire safety, stairs, and security, all of which were resolved by November 2001. A more recent inspection in December 2022 resulted in no observed violations, though compliance affidavits were required and subsequently addressed in May 2023.

The property has experienced minimal issues with emergency services, primarily consisting of false alarm activations and one instance of smoke detector malfunction, with no civilian injuries reported in any incidents. Recent maintenance and improvement history shows regular attention to both safety and modernization needs, including plumbing upgrades such as kitchen sink drain replacements in 2010, electrical system improvements, and various apartment unit renovations. The building's location has seen typical urban maintenance issues as evidenced by 311 calls, mainly regarding graffiti and waste removal on the surrounding property, though these are primarily street-level concerns not directly related to building maintenance.
