291-293 2nd Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

The two-unit residential building at 291-293 2nd Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Richmond district, owned by Tong Brothers LLC, is a two-story flats and duplex structure constructed in 1955. The building's documented history includes several maintenance and repair activities, such as a 1991 window upgrade to replace 11 aluminum windows and a 2004 sidewalk permit issuance.

Recent incidents from 2024-2025 indicate some concerning patterns in the immediate vicinity, including a sewage discharge from the side sewer vent in December 2024, multiple instances of garbage and debris (including human waste) on or near the property, and two cases of illegal postings on street infrastructure in 2022-2023. The building experienced two fire alarm incidents recorded as false alarms, though these were due to malfunctioning equipment rather than actual fires, and thankfully there were no civilian injuries reported in either case.

The property has seen various municipal service interactions, including responses to damaged parking meters and defaced signs in 2023, as well as graffiti removal services in late 2021. While most of these incidents have been resolved through appropriate channels, they suggest that the immediate area around the building has experienced some maintenance and cleanliness challenges in recent years. The building's age is reflected in its permit history, showing relatively minimal recorded maintenance activity over the past few decades, with the most recent significant infrastructure work being the window replacement more than three decades ago.
