1341 Valencia St, San Francisco, CA 94110

1341 Valencia Street is a 32-unit, three-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1904, currently owned by Murphy San Francisco LP. The property has undergone several significant improvements and faced various challenges over the past decades. Most notably, a mandatory soft-story retrofit was completed in 2019 at a cost of $150,000, bringing the building into compliance with seismic safety requirements.

The building has experienced recurring fire safety concerns, with violations for alarm system maintenance in 2015, 2019, and most recently in November 2023 related to sleeping area requirements. Recent tenant complaints indicate ongoing maintenance issues, including a December 2024 heat outage and a documented cockroach infestation in October 2023, which management allegedly failed to properly address. The building's maintenance history shows both completed repairs and some withdrawn permit applications, such as a proposed addition of two new units in 2018.

Historical violations from 2000 included multiple interior and security issues, all of which were abated by August 2000. Recent 311 calls from late 2024 through early 2025 have primarily concerned external issues like garbage, debris, and sidewalk maintenance. The property has an established routine inspection history, though some violations remain in various stages of resolution, including recent fire safety-related citations. While the building has experienced periodic maintenance and safety issues, many past violations have been resolved through proper channels, including a significant focus on seismic retrofitting and fire safety improvements in recent years.
