214-216 Funston Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

The property at 214-216 Funston Ave is a three-story, multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Richmond neighborhood. Built in 1904, this flats-and-duplex-style building, owned by Frank M. Wong and Joyce Y.

Wong, contains two residential units. The building has a significant history of code compliance issues and unpermitted construction work. Most recently, in 2022, a complaint was filed regarding an unpermitted wooden deck constructed over the garage, which remains an active violation as of 2023.

Previous major compliance issues were documented between 2007-2009, including unauthorized rear staircases, illegal kitchens, and bathroom facilities, which were eventually resolved through a comprehensive $32,000 renovation that included proper legalization of bathrooms, office space, and window replacements. The building underwent several significant improvements and repairs over the years, including electrical upgrades (new wiring for bedrooms and bathroom in 2010, and various electrical work in 2005), legalizing multiple bathroom facilities (completed in 2010), and addressing various maintenance issues such as roofing work (completed in 2003) and siding repairs (proposed in 2019). Historical complaints from 1999-2005 indicate prior concerns about unauthorized units and construction work. More recently, there have been several 311 calls in 2023-2024 regarding street cleaning and sanitation issues in the vicinity of the property, though these are not directly related to the building's conditions.
