37-39 Lupine Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

The two-unit residential building at 37-39 Lupine Avenue, owned by the Ruth Yee Fong Trust, is a two-story flats and duplex structure constructed in 1951 in the Jordan Park/Laurel Heights neighborhood. The building's maintenance history shows several significant improvements, including the installation of vinyl siding on the street-facing portion in 2001 ($10,800) and a kitchen renovation in unit #39 completed in 1988, though both the roofing work from 1991 and the associated kitchen renovation permit are listed as expired.

The property has experienced recurring issues with graffiti over the past 18 months, with multiple incidents reported between 2022 and 2023 affecting both residential and commercial building sections. These graffiti incidents, including one classified as "Offensive," have all been resolved, though the city noted a backlog of complaints during the COVID pandemic in 2023 due to temporary suspension of enforcement.

The building's surroundings have faced challenges with graffiti and abandoned vehicles, with four abandoned vehicle reports (two in 2023 alone) and several street cleaning issues documented through 311 calls. Notable recent incidents include a missing street cleaning sign in February 2024 and two graffiti reports in August 2023, during which the Department of Public Works provided an explanation regarding enforcement delays. The property's documented maintenance history shows regular upkeep of basic infrastructure, though the frequency of graffiti incidents suggests ongoing challenges with exterior maintenance and neighborhood interactions.
