324 32nd Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

Situated in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood, 324 32nd Avenue is a two-story, 6-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1962 and currently owned by Liu May C. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues, particularly regarding moisture control and heating systems, with the most recent complaint in January 2024 citing water intrusion, no heat, and mold problems in Unit #3.

This follows several prior incidents of water-related issues, including a pattern of black mold complaints documented from 2011 through 2024. Recent improvements demonstrate the owner's attention to building safety, including a 2023 upgrade to the fire alarm system to comply with San Francisco Fire Code requirements, and the completion of various maintenance projects in 2024 such as window replacement and wall repairs following a housing complaint. The building's maintenance history shows significant infrastructure improvements over the past decade, including a sewer line replacement in 2021, re-roofing in 2018, and a comprehensive bathroom remodel in Unit 5.

A cluster of violations in February 2017, which designated the property as a "nuisance" under Section 1001-d of the San Francisco Housing Code, included multiple interior maintenance issues such as inadequate heating, damaged walls, plumbing problems, and the need for smoke detectors, though these were officially abated by March 2024. While the building has had two documented fire incidents (one false alarm and one contained cooking fire) with no injuries reported, there was a fire alarm system correction required and completed in 2023, suggesting active management of safety systems. The property's historical records also show regular routine inspections by Housing Inspection Services from 1999 to 2024, indicating ongoing monitoring of building conditions by city authorities.
