3179 23rd St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-story, six-unit multi-family residential building at 3179 23rd Street in the Inner Mission, owned by E & B Schlesinger Fmly Lp, has undergone significant transformations since its construction in 1973. The property was retrofitted for seismic safety in 2016 under San Francisco's mandatory soft-story program, achieving Tier 3 compliance with a completed CFC issued cost of $40,000. Between 2002 and 2008, the building experienced several major changes, including an attempt to convert it into a 22-bed residential care facility for mentally disabled adults (ultimately abandoned), followed by the re-establishment of its original six-unit configuration.

During this period, multiple housing code violations were documented and subsequently resolved in 2002, including issues with damaged ceilings, walls, windows, and floor covering, as well as plumbing and electrical problems. A fire sprinkler system was partially implemented in 2005 ($15,000), and various maintenance and repair works, including kitchen drain replacements and electrical upgrades, were completed in 2008 and 2017. More recent building history shows regular maintenance and compliance activities, with the most recent work being the 2017 electrical installation of Ufer grounding system.

The building has had several routine inspections and minor complaints, most of which have been promptly addressed. While there have been issues requiring attention, such as plumbing problems and maintenance concerns documented between 2002 and 2011, no serious safety incidents have been recorded in recent years. The property has also experienced several street-level maintenance issues as evidenced by 311 calls, primarily related to general street cleaning and sidewalk conditions between 2021 and 2023.
