355-357 Valley St, San Francisco, CA 94131

The property at 355-357 Valley Street in Noe Valley is a two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1913, containing three dwelling units legally classified as two in the front building and one in the rear building, according to a 2016 correction of occupancy records. The building has undergone several significant renovations over the years, including kitchen remodels in 2015 and 2013 (costing $12,000 and $15,000 respectively), foundation repairs in 2010 ($3,000), and various electrical upgrades.

However, the property currently faces multiple active violations as of March 2023, including issues with smoke detectors, floor coverings, tub/shower repairs, general maintenance, and window hardware, along with reported problems of water damage, mold, and noise disturbances as per a tenant complaint. Historical records show a complaint about unpermitted construction of a second-story deck and new stairs between buildings in 2012, though this is noted as not active.

The building has received various permits for both plumbing and electrical work associated with the renovations, including comprehensive kitchen updates with modern amenities and safety features. Recent 311 calls primarily relate to parking and sidewalk issues outside the property, with multiple reports of abandoned vehicles and temporary moving sign requests. While the building has seen significant improvements over the years, the recent multiple violations related to maintenance and safety features suggest current challenges with building upkeep and resident comfort.
