331 Campbell Ave, San Francisco, CA 94134

The 6-unit apartment building at 331 Campbell Ave in Visitacion Valley, owned by Schembri Campbell Propertie and constructed in 1961, is currently undergoing extensive renovations as of late 2024, including bathroom remodeling in units 1 through 5 (costing $140,000), electrical system upgrades including new 200-amp equipment installation and panel relocations, and related plumbing work. The building has a documented history of maintenance and safety issues, particularly in the early to mid-2000s, with violations including fireproofing repairs, security viewer installation, mold remediation, and fire extinguisher requirements, all of which were subsequently abated. Recent fire safety concerns were noted in 2015 with a hoarding situation (no access to building), and in 2013-2012 with blocked exits and an open vacant building, though these conditions were corrected.

The property has experienced multiple fire department responses between 2012 and 2015 for various reasons including carbon monoxide detector activations and alarm system malfunctions, though no injuries were reported in these incidents. Recent 311 calls from late 2024 have primarily concerned exterior issues such as garbage and debris removal, graffiti, and a water leak, with one call regarding a fire hydrant maintenance issue in January 2025. The building underwent routine housing inspections in 1999, 2000, 2004, 2006, 2007, and 2011, suggesting regular oversight by housing authorities.

The most recent comprehensive renovation work, focusing on modernizing bathrooms and electrical systems, indicates significant investment in building upgrades and maintenance. While the building's past violations and complaints indicate periodic maintenance and safety challenges, most historical issues have been resolved, with the focus now being on the current renovation work. The property's documented history shows relatively few serious incidents in recent years, with the majority of recent service calls relating to exterior maintenance rather than internal building conditions.
