3353 26th St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The three-story multi-family residential building at 3353 26th Street, owned by Meda Small Properties LLC, was constructed in 1914 and contains 11 units in the Inner Mission neighborhood. The property has undergone significant improvements over recent years, with major renovations completed in 2019 including interior upgrades to all units (bathrooms, kitchens, flooring, and fixtures), building exterior maintenance, electrical system upgrades, and the installation of new fire alarm and sprinkler monitoring systems at a total cost exceeding $600,000. The building successfully completed mandatory soft-story retrofitting in 2016, demonstrating compliance with seismic safety requirements.

Recent records indicate ongoing concerns with safety and maintenance, including active building complaints regarding common areas (2023) and burglary/vandalism incidents (2024). The property has a history of fire safety violations and complaints, with issues related to blocked exits and alarm systems noted in 2022 and 2023, though many violations have been promptly corrected upon inspection. Infrastructure improvements have included plumbing upgrades throughout all units, new electrical subpanels, and various building systems modifications.

The property has experienced recurrent issues with garbage and debris management in the surrounding area, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in 2024, though these are primarily related to street maintenance rather than building conditions. Recent fire safety violations from December 2023 were documented regarding alarm systems, extinguishers, and sprinklers, though these were abated following correction. The building maintains active use as a general/specialty grocery with related approvals in place.
