242 11th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

The two-unit residential building at 242 11th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Richmond neighborhood, constructed in 1921 and currently owned by Donald C. Fu and Raymond C. Fu, has experienced several significant maintenance and safety issues over the past two decades. The property underwent an electrical service upgrade to 125 amps in 2011, representing some modernization of its infrastructure.

Between 2002 and 2006, multiple housing and building violations were documented, including serious concerns such as water damage, mold/mildew, lead paint hazards, and window dysfunctions. Notable complaints included a leaking roof causing water intrusion in 2005, and in 2002, issues were reported regarding floor coverings, damaged ceilings, and smoke detector deficiencies. The building's maintenance issues appear to have been addressed, as all violations were officially abated by 2002-2006, although the 2005 illegal unit complaint status remains listed as not active. More recent property management and environmental maintenance issues have been primarily external to the building itself.

From 2019 to 2024, there have been numerous parking-related incidents and complaints about tree maintenance, including overgrown trees and sidewalk defects. Multiple citations have been issued for blocking the driveway, with the most recent incidents occurring in 2023-2024. Infrastructure-related concerns were documented in 2021 regarding sidewalk conditions and tree maintenance, with one report noting a collapsed sidewalk and another about an empty tree basin that required replacement. These recent issues, while not directly related to the building's internal conditions, indicate ongoing property management and environmental maintenance challenges.
