262 22nd Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The 6-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 262 22nd Ave in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by the David T Chinn Living Trust 2018, was constructed in 1964 and has undergone several significant improvements over the years. Most notably, the building completed a seismic retrofit in 2015 as part of the wood frame soft story program, demonstrating compliance with mandatory safety requirements.

In 2023, the property received a comprehensive fire safety upgrade, including the installation of an addressable fire alarm system, wireless communicator, smoke detectors, manual pull stations, horn strobes, and low-frequency horns throughout residential sleeping areas to meet current fire code standards. The building has experienced recurring maintenance issues, with a significant complaint filed in August 2024 regarding inadequate interior maintenance particularly around the garbage area, though these violations were abated in September 2024. Historical records from 2003 and 2024 show concerns about combustible storage and fire safety, as well as sanitation issues around the garbage chute, suggesting periodic challenges with building maintenance.

The property has also been the subject of multiple parking-related complaints in the surrounding area, though these are not directly related to building conditions. Recent 311 calls indicate some infrastructure issues, including a sewage backup in 2020, which was resolved. While the building has addressed its seismic and fire safety requirements, the frequency of sanitation-related complaints suggests ongoing challenges with maintenance and upkeep.
