2352-2356 Lombard St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The property at 2352-2356 Lombard Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building with ground-floor commercial space, built in 1923 and currently owned by the Gloria W Yam Revocable Trust. The building has undergone several significant events, most notably a collision with a Muni bus in September 2018 that caused damage to the front façade, awning, storefront, and sidewalk. This incident led to multiple repairs, including stucco and roof work costing $5,000, and subsequent renovations in 2019 for new signage and awning installation.

The building has experienced recurring fire code violations between 2010 and 2024, including recent issues in 2023-2024 related to sleeping area requirements, alarm systems, and other safety concerns, though most have been corrected upon inspection. Historical records show roof work was completed in 2006, additional addresses were added in 2005, and various awning installations have been attempted from 1988 through 2019. The building continues to face maintenance challenges, as evidenced by recent 311 calls in 2023-2024 reporting sidewalk cleaning needs, graffiti, and waste issues around the property.

Multiple fire safety violations remain open or were only recently abated, suggesting ongoing compliance monitoring requirements. While some historical complaints and violations have been resolved, including a hoarding issue in 2019 and various alarm system problems, the pattern of repairs and code violations indicates a building requiring consistent maintenance attention. Recent plumbing work included the installation of a backflow device in 2020, and electrical repairs were completed in 2019 following a storm-related incident. The property has also experienced periodic issues with commercial vent noise (2000) and unauthorized work (2014), though these complaints are now inactive.
