2339 Jones St, San Francisco, CA 94133

2339 Jones Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in Russian Hill, owned by Derek Eckert and constructed in 1917. The property has experienced several significant maintenance and compliance issues in recent months, with the most pressing concern being an active building violation filed in September 2023 regarding an unsafe retaining wall between 2339 and 2349 Jones Street, which led to a compliance order in December 2023 to remove and rebuild the existing wall. This violation was generated by a complaint about unpermitted work on the retaining wall and potential safety concerns.

In late 2023, the building underwent window improvements, replacing 14 existing vinyl and aluminum windows with Title 24 compliant wood/clad Marvin windows, and safety glass where required, at a cost of $28,000. The building is currently scheduled for re-roofing work in March 2024, with an estimated cost of $22,960. The property's maintenance history shows various improvements over the years, including a 2018 complete rewiring of Unit #3 and installation of new lights, outlets, and switches, along with a sub-panel relocation. Historical records indicate a completed vinyl siding installation to the rear wall in 1992 and an earlier re-roofing project in 1996.

There have been multiple street space permits issued for the property in 2017 and 2006, though the specific purposes are not detailed in the records. The surrounding area has experienced recurring parking enforcement issues, with seven documented cases of driveway blocking between 2021 and 2024, suggesting ongoing challenges with parking management in the vicinity. A 2021 graffiti incident was also recorded and resolved through city services. The property's recent history shows active maintenance and improvement efforts by the current ownership, though the unresolved retaining wall issue represents the most significant current concern.
