262 7th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

The 8-unit multi-family residential building at 262 7th Avenue in the Inner Richmond, owned by the Harold Baum 2010 Trust, was constructed in 1963 and stands two stories tall. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and safety upgrades over the years, most notably including a complete reroofing project in 2018 costing $21,500, and extensive electrical work initiated in December 2024 involving the replacement and relocation of nine sub-panels for all eight apartments plus a house panel in the laundry room. The building faced a cluster of fire safety and maintenance compliance issues in December 2015, including problems with fire escape drop ladders, fire extinguishers, and the need for structural maintenance, though all these violations were abated by February 2016.

A mold issue was reported in Apartment #7 around windows in December 2017, which was subsequently resolved. Historical records show that the building underwent substantial accessibility improvements in 2006, including the installation of a new disabled access ramp and four ADA-compliant restrooms. The property has experienced two carbon monoxide detector activations, both with no confirmed CO presence, and there were routine housing inspections conducted in 1996, 2002, 2009, 2015, and 2017, suggesting regular monitoring of building conditions.

The most recent electrical upgrades in late 2024 indicate ongoing investment in infrastructure improvements. While there have been numerous reports of illegal parking and some street maintenance issues in the vicinity of the building as recorded in 311 calls from 2022 to 2024, these are external to the building itself. The building's documented history shows a pattern of addressing safety and maintenance concerns, though the occurrence of fire safety violations and a mold issue suggests areas requiring ongoing attention.
