The two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 323-325 25th Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Parry Evan G, has undergone significant recent improvements since late 2022. The property, originally built in 1923 as a flats and duplex structure, received substantial renovation work including a major kitchen and bathroom remodel on the third floor, installation of new exterior stairs in the light well, creation of a new wood deck in the rear yard, replacement of glass doors on the second floor, and window replacements, all completed at a cost of $150,000. Additional recent improvements include a complete reroofing in October 2022 ($23,474) and, most recently in November 2023, the installation of new air ducts and a Carrier furnace with 80% efficiency rating.

The building's systems have received significant updates, including electrical improvements with new plugs, lights, switches, and exhaust fans as part of the 2023 remodel project, and heating system upgrades with baseboard heaters installed in living areas and bedrooms in 2012. The property has a history of heating system issues, particularly noted in January 2011 and January 2012, when residents reported insufficient heat and temperatures failing to rise above 60 degrees. These violations, which included concerns about steam heater/radiators and habitable space heating requirements, were all officially abated by April 2012.

Earlier maintenance history shows attention to building upkeep, including stucco replacement in 1990 and termite repairs in 1986. The building has experienced typical urban neighborhood issues as evidenced by 311 calls, including reports of abandoned vehicles (2012, 2015), garbage issues (2020, 2022), and occasional graffiti (2020). Recent building improvements have focused on modernization and system upgrades, particularly in response to the previous heating system complaints, with no active violations or complaints on record as of the latest data.
