3543-3547 23rd St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The 5-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 3543-3547 23rd Street in Noe Valley, built in 1904 and currently owned by the Dwp 2012 Irrevocable Trust, has undergone several significant improvements and faced various challenges over the years. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 at a cost of $105,000, achieving CFC issuance as a Tier 3 building. Recent maintenance includes a re-roofing project completed in 2019 costing $24,000.

Between 2010-2011, substantial interior renovations were performed, including bathroom renovations, new bathroom additions, wet bar installations on the first floor, and window replacements in various units, along with comprehensive electrical and plumbing updates. The building has experienced multiple safety and compliance issues, particularly notable in 2001-2002 and 2011, including violations related to fire safety systems, garbage disposal, and sanitation. A significant complaint about unauthorized remodeling and system modifications was filed in 2007, while more recent concerns include reports of encampments and graffiti in 2023-2024, along with multiple complaints about parking violations on the property.

The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to major systems and safety compliance, though there have been periods of concerning violations, particularly in the early 2000s. Recent 311 calls suggest ongoing challenges with parking and street cleaning around the property. Planning records indicate that as of 2017, part of the property was being used as an office for "Trustwork," with reports of multiple workstations and equipment not typical of residential use, though this usage appears to have been addressed through abatement procedures.
