3552-3558 23rd St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The property at 3552-3558 23rd Street in Noe Valley is a two-story mixed-use building constructed in 1900, containing 8 residential units plus commercial space, currently owned by Trust A. The building has undergone numerous renovations and improvements over the years, with significant recent activity in 2022-2023 including a kitchen/bath remodel (cost: $40,000), plumbing upgrades including bathroom and kitchen renovations, and ADA compliance work. Several historical commercial improvements were made in 2014-2016, including electrical service upgrades, ADA door installations, and work related to the ground-floor retail spaces which have housed a grocery store, hair salon, and nail salon.

The property experienced multiple building violations in 2007 related to unauthorized construction work and electrical issues, though these were subsequently resolved. More recently, there is an active complaint filed in October 2022 regarding unpermitted construction work and noise disruptions during renovation work, which remains unresolved as of October 2023. The building's utilities infrastructure has received significant attention, with multiple water heater installations (most recently in 2023), plumbing upgrades including galvanized pipe replacement, and electrical system improvements including a 400-amp service upgrade in 2014.

The property has maintained compliance with major safety requirements, though there was one fire alarm system complaint in 2013 that was determined to have no merit. Recent maintenance issues have included recurring reports of garbage and debris in the vicinity (most recently in 2024), and two instances of non-offensive graffiti on the residential portion of the building in 2023 that were not responded to by the Department of Public Works. While the building has undergone substantial renovations and improvements, the presence of recent active complaints and documented history of unpermitted work suggests ongoing compliance monitoring may be necessary.
