16-18 Ashbury St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The two-family residential building at 16 Ashbury St in Park North, constructed in 1923, has undergone significant electrical system upgrades in recent months, including the complete replacement of knob-and-tube wiring in various living spaces, with the most recent work completed in November 2024 and another related permit issued in December 2024. The building's maintenance history shows consistent attention to infrastructure improvements, with a building use permit recorded in 1982 for flats use.

The property has experienced various urban challenges typical of its location, with several 311 calls logged between 2021 and 2025. These include multiple reports of pavement defects (January and April 2021), graffiti incidents (July 2012, November 2022), and abandoned furniture (August 2024).

Of particular note was an encampment that required clearance in July 2021. More recently, in early 2025, there was a report of loose garbage and debris, though this was resolved with no work needed. The building's systems modernization, particularly the electrical rewiring work completed in late 2024, represents a significant improvement to the property's infrastructure and safety systems.
