202-208 21st Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The four-unit multi-family residential building at 202-208 21st Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Adam Mark Levitz, has a documented history dating back to its 1921 construction. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and safety-related improvements over the years, including plumbing updates in 2009 (sewer line replacement) and 2011 (hot water system circulation), a complete reroofing in 2006, and various stair repairs in 2014 to address safety concerns.

Notably, the building is currently facing multiple active violations from a 2014 routine inspection that remain unresolved, including issues related to fire safety (fire extinguisher maintenance), structural documentation, carbon monoxide and smoke alarm compliance, and potential lead paint hazards. These ongoing violations represent the most significant current concerns regarding building maintenance and safety compliance. The property has a history of addressing housing code violations, with previous issues from 2002 being resolved within two months, including concerns about ventilation for gas meters, egress obstructions, and security requirements.

There was also a complaint about illegal construction in 2010 regarding unpermitted floor removals, which was not resolved until 2012. Recent activity at the property has primarily involved exterior maintenance, with multiple 311 calls in late 2024 related to debris and garbage on or near the property, though most of these cases were resolved without the need for further action. The building's documented history shows a pattern of addressing structural and safety concerns when they arise, though the persistence of the 2014 violations is notable within the current context.
