261 17th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The property at 261 17th Avenue is a three-story, two-unit multi-family residential building located in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Roman & Galina Knop and constructed in 1998. The building was established following the demolition of a previous two-story single-family dwelling in 1996, with the new construction including a crawl space addition completed in March 1998.

Of particular note, the building received a significant solar upgrade in April 2024, with the installation of 23 PV modules (9.43 kW DC system). A single building complaint was filed in 1995 regarding water damage and peeling paint in multiple rooms, though this was promptly addressed within four days. The most noteworthy recent activity concerns multiple parking enforcement incidents in late 2024, with a total of eight documented cases related to driveway blocking between October and December 2024.

While some of these resulted in citations, others ended with officers being unable to locate the offending vehicles. A sewer-related issue was reported and directed to customer service in October 2024 and a street tree installation requirement (under Section 143) was noted and marked as abated in planning records. The building's history shows proper completion of initial construction and permits, with no significant safety or maintenance issues reported since the 1995 water damage incident, which appears to have been an isolated case.
