360 32nd Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The 16-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 360 32nd Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Kwan Nicholas & Marcella, is a 1960 construction that has undergone several significant improvements and faced various challenges over the years. Most recently, in 2024, the building has required attention to both its structural safety and maintenance, with permits issued for repairs to dry rot at exterior stairs and landing areas, as well as replacement of decorative wood trim at the front of the building. There are ongoing concerns regarding the building's soft story compliance, as it is currently listed as "Non-Compliant" under Tier 2 status, with a 2022 Active complaint regarding the soft story program still pending resolution.

The building has a history of various maintenance and safety issues, including fire safety concerns in 2023 regarding sleeping area requirements, a 2006 complaint about problematic roof drainage affecting adjacent property, and multiple renovation projects including kitchen and bathroom remodels in 2008-2009. The property has undergone electrical and plumbing updates during these renovations, and significant structural work was completed in 2017 for soft story retrofit compliance following complaints in 2016. The building has faced occasional maintenance challenges, such as reported lead paint concerns in July 2024 and a construction-related noise complaint from July 12, 2024.

Historical violations from the early 2000s included interior surface issues, mold/mildew problems, and fire safety violations, all of which were subsequently resolved. The property has undergone several routine housing inspections, with most issues being addressed properly, though some more recent repairs and compliance matters are still open or pending resolution. The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to both structural and cosmetic improvements, though the current soft story compliance status indicates there may still be outstanding structural safety concerns that require attention.
