235 Paris St, San Francisco, CA 94112

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 235 Paris Street in the Excelsior neighborhood, owned by Elaine Chow and Tony Chung Ki, has a significant maintenance history dating back to 1997. Most notably, in 2019 the property faced multiple building violations that triggered a comprehensive compliance process, including issues with stairs and railings, fire proofing in the garage ceiling, and various plumbing and electrical permit requirements. These violations were ultimately resolved by May 2021, and during this period, the property underwent several important repairs including back stairs and railings work, hole patching, and fire safety equipment installation.

The building's infrastructure received attention in mid-2019 with the installation of three new water heaters and water meters. Recent activity at the property, as of early 2025, shows several ongoing municipal concerns including sidewalk defects, overgrown trees, and multiple reports of garbage and debris on the property grounds. These issues appear to be primarily external to the building structure itself.

The property experienced a minor electrical incident in 2022 involving arcing/shorted equipment, though no civilian injuries were reported, and there was a temporary fire complaint regarding blocked exits that was determined to have no merit. Historical records from 1997 indicate a previous dispute regarding garage space usage, which was resolved within one month. The building's maintenance and compliance history suggests active management, particularly in response to the significant code violation cluster of 2019, though the recent external maintenance issues documented in 2024 may warrant attention.
