3983 Mission St, San Francisco, CA 94112

The 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 3983 Mission Street in Bernal Heights, owned by Nancy Giese Slavin and constructed in 1954, has a notable history of fire-related incidents and subsequent repairs. The most significant event occurred in March 2006 when a fire caused substantial damage requiring comprehensive repairs to the kitchen, entry hall, and electrical systems in unit #3, with work completed by July 2006 at a cost of $10,000, including fire damage repairs, electrical rewiring, and fuse box relocation.

The building experienced several safety violations in January 2001, including issues with smoke enclosure doors, lead paint hazards, and fire safety equipment, all of which were abated by May 2001. Infrastructure improvements include a complete reroofing project in 1999, an underground electrical service conversion in 2003, and routine safety inspections in 2008 and 2015. Recent maintenance and safety concerns from 2019 to 2023 include multiple reports of garbage and cleaning issues on the property, a collapsed sidewalk reported in January 2022, and a sewage backup incident in May 2021 that was promptly resolved.

The building's location has experienced periodic neighborhood challenges, as evidenced by multiple encampment-related complaints between 2019 and 2021, and external maintenance issues such as graffiti on AT&T property in 2019. While the building has experienced significant fire damage in the past, proper repairs were conducted, and the property has undergone various infrastructure improvements over the years. The most recent building-related complaints have primarily concerned external maintenance and neighborhood issues rather than structural or safety concerns within the building itself.
