3321-3325 23rd St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The three-story multi-family residential building at 3321-3325 23rd Street in San Francisco's Inner Mission district, owned by DJB Development Partners I, has undergone significant renovations and faced multiple maintenance challenges since its construction in 1890. The property underwent comprehensive unit modernization in 2019-2020, including kitchen and bathroom remodels in all three units, the addition of new bathrooms, laundry facility conversions, and upgraded electrical systems with a new 400-amp panel. Structural improvements included voluntary seismic upgrades with steel moment frames, shearwalls, and a new foundation work.

In early 2020, the building completed a garage restoration project to address compliance issues identified by planning enforcement, including removing and restoring wood siding to match original profiles. The building has experienced recurring maintenance and safety concerns, particularly evident in 2016 when multiple housing violations were documented, including issues with windows, plumbing fixtures, security features, and interior surfaces. These violations, along with earlier complaints about mold, insect issues, and improper heater installations dating back to 1998-2010, were officially abated by November 2016.

More recent history shows some fire safety concerns, with several blocked exit and fire extinguisher-related complaints between 2014-2024, though most were promptly corrected. The property has generated multiple 311 calls recently (2024-2025) primarily related to garbage and debris on the street, though these are external to the building itself. While the building's major systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) were all updated in 2019, recent fire alarm activations (which were generally due to system malfunctions) and the most recent fire-related issues from 2024 (blocked exits) suggest ongoing attention to safety systems may be warranted.
