3219 23rd St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The 12-unit apartment building at 3219 23rd Street in the Inner Mission, constructed in 1916 and currently owned by Capital Eq Llc, has undergone several significant structural and safety improvements over recent years. Most notably, in 2023, the building received substantial roof maintenance including plywood replacement and re-roofing work totaling approximately $14,800. A completed soft-story retrofit in 2017, costing $75,000, brought the building into compliance with seismic safety requirements.

However, the property has experienced persistent maintenance and safety issues, with several active and recently resolved complaints. These include concerns about general dilapidation, water damage, and inadequate fire safety measures, such as sprinkler system maintenance violations issued in 2023. Recent complaints from 2024 indicate ongoing issues with common area cleanliness, damaged carpets, and potential sewage problems.

The building has a history of code violations and maintenance challenges, though many have been addressed through permitted work. In 2020, there were serious safety concerns involving carbon monoxide levels during construction work, and in 2022, multiple complaints were filed regarding building systems and condition, including broken windows, fire alarms, and hot water access. The property has undergone various unit improvements over the years, including kitchen and bathroom remodels, electrical upgrades, and plumbing repairs, with most recent works being properly completed and documented. While some historical violations from the 2000s related to fire safety and security have been resolved, the building continues to require attention to various maintenance and safety systems, as evidenced by the recent complaints and violations.
