255 Collins St, San Francisco, CA 94118
The property at 255 Collins Street in the Lone Mountain neighborhood is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1908, currently owned by the Robert Y Chin Trust. The building's maintenance record shows recent work in April 2024 involving the installation of a new 40-gallon gas water heater at unit 257, though this represents routine maintenance rather than a significant upgrade.
The building has experienced some ongoing maintenance issues, most notably a complaint filed in September 2020 regarding exterior paint flaking onto neighboring property, though this case is listed as not active without clear resolution noted. An earlier issue from April 2005 regarding a sealed-over light well was promptly addressed on the same day it was reported. The surrounding infrastructure has seen multiple reports of pavement defects in 2024, with several open cases as recent as September 2024, suggesting ongoing concerns with the sidewalk and curb conditions near the property.
Two historical 311 calls from 2012 and 2020 mention general street cleaning and encampment removal, respectively, though these appear to be unrelated to the building's condition and were resolved promptly. While the building itself has had minimal documented complaints over recent years, the persistent sidewalk and street surface issues in the immediate vicinity may affect resident access and curb appeal. The most recent documented maintenance activity pertains specifically to the water heater replacement, which occurred in an exterior closet space and was conducted in accordance with proper permitting procedures.
