3172-3176 24th St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The property at 3172-3176 24th Street is a three-story, 11-unit multi-family residential building in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood, owned by Galu Realty LLC and built in 1927. The building underwent significant seismic improvements in 2016, completing a mandatory soft-story retrofit that included both residential and commercial portions, with associated costs of over $92,000. Several notable fire safety issues have been documented between 2016 and 2024, including concerns with extinguishers, blocked exits, alarm systems, and sprinkler systems.

The most recent fire complaint regarding sprinkler/standpipe systems was filed in September 2024 and closed in October 2024 with no merit. In February 2017, a routine inspection identified multiple safety and maintenance issues that required attention, including problems with egress, stairs, self-closing doors, stair repairs, smoke detectors, and a fire escape ladder, though all these violations were abated by March 2017. The building has undergone various commercial space modifications, including a change of use from retail to barber shop in 2017.

Accessibility improvements were made in 2011 with the installation of an accessible front entrance and automatic door openers. More recently, there have been some environmental concerns in the vicinity of the property, with multiple reports of graffiti on parking meters and instances of debris that were documented through 311 calls in 2024. A hoarding issue was reported in December 2018 (unit 101 - Maria) and resolved, and an earlier hoarding complaint from 2021 was corrected. The property's soft-story retrofit work was completed and certified, placing it in Tier 4 status for seismic compliance.
