2238-2240 Jones St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The property at 2238-2240 Jones Street in Russian Hill is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1925, currently owned by the Jennifer Kwok Living Trust. The building has experienced several significant repairs and modifications over the years, with the most recent major work occurring in 2013 involving the installation of a new retaining wall and replacement of damaged structural components, completed at a cost of $8,000.

In 2000, the property underwent multiple improvements including addressing dry rot issues on the deck and roof, and a contested renovation that led to a building violation for unauthorized work, though this was subsequently abated by May 2000. This violation involved the installation of a new roof deck, basement rooms, full bathroom, and associated electrical and plumbing work without proper permits or inspections. The building's recent history has been relatively quiet in terms of major structural issues, with no building violations recorded since 2000.

The property has experienced some typical urban challenges in its vicinity, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls between 2015 and 2024, primarily related to parking issues (including citations for sidewalk parking and illegal parking), and occasional reports of waste management concerns (with toters being left out). There was one recorded fire incident involving outside rubbish, trash, or waste, though it resulted in no civilian injuries. The most recent activity at the property was a parking-related incident in August 2024, suggesting that while the building's structural issues have stabilized, the surrounding area continues to experience typical urban challenges.
