22-24 John St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The two-unit residential building at 22-24 John Street, owned by Weng Ellis, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1919 in Nob Hill. The property has undergone various maintenance and improvement works over the years, with the most recent significant repair occurring in April 2023 to address damage to the lower stairline and landing, as identified in a termite report. This repair, costing $9,500, was a notable response to structural concerns.

In recent years, there have been several plumbing-related issues, including a 2021 complaint about a problematic drain pipe in the rear light well that affected both units, though this complaint is listed as not active. The building has seen multiple attempted renovations, particularly in 2001, when permits were issued for extensive kitchen and bathroom remodels in both units, window replacements, and electrical upgrades, though many of these permits ultimately expired or were cancelled. The property's maintenance record shows attention to infrastructure upgrades, including a completed 200-amp underground electrical conversion in 2003, and some historical street space permits from 2001 and 2013.

A 2008 electrical permit was filed to move a circuit to the proper meter location, though this permit has since expired. The building's recent history includes typical urban maintenance issues documented through 311 calls, such as graffiti removal, sidewalk cleaning, and sewer vent cover replacement, though these are more related to general building maintenance rather than structural or safety concerns. Two recent 311 calls from 2023-2024 are still open, one regarding structural maintenance and another for a temporary moving sign request.
