3966-3968 Cesar Chavez St, San Francisco, CA 94131

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 3966-3968 Cesar Chavez Street in Noe Valley, owned by Linda Chin, is a 2-story flats and duplex structure built in 1902. The property has undergone several significant maintenance and repair works over the past two decades, with the most recent major work being a sewer replacement completed in 2013 following complaints about sewage issues in August of that year.

The building experienced serious interior maintenance challenges in late 2003/early 2004, when multiple violations were filed regarding damaged walls, ceilings, stairs, and deck repairs, as well as plumbing and ventilation issues, including concerns about lead paint hazards. These violations were all abated by April 28, 2004. Additional building maintenance includes a reroofing project undertaken in October 2009 costing $7,000, and repair work on backyard stairs completed in February 2004 at a cost of $1,125.

The most recent 311 call on record for the property was in April 2019, categorized as a general public works service request, while there were two sewer-related incidents reported in July and August 2013 that required attention from the Public Utilities Commission. The building's historical issues, particularly those from 2003-2004, indicate a period of significant structural and maintenance challenges, though there have been no documented violations or major complaints in the past decade that suggest ongoing serious problems. The property's documented repairs and improvements, including the sewer replacement and roofing work, demonstrate efforts to maintain the building's infrastructure, though prospective residents should be aware of its historical maintenance challenges.
