357-359 Arguello Blvd, San Francisco, CA 94118

The two-unit residential building at 357-359 Arguello Blvd in San Francisco's Inner Richmond neighborhood is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1906 and currently owned by Franklin M Heynemann Revoc. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the years, most notably in 2009-2010 when substantial work was performed on both units. Unit 359 received $25,000 worth of kitchen and bathroom upgrades, along with front stair repairs, while earlier proposed work in Unit 357 (valued at $19,000) was cancelled.

During this renovation period, the building experienced multiple lead paint-related violations in October 2009 concerning improper sanding and scraping practices, lack of containment systems, inadequate signage, and cleanup failures - all of which were abated by February 2010. The building received comprehensive plumbing upgrades in May 2009, including installation of two tankless water heaters and new copper piping throughout the building, while electrical upgrades included new 200-amp service and extensive rewiring. More recent records from 2024-2025 show ongoing maintenance issues primarily related to parking violations in the vicinity, with multiple citations issued for illegal parking.

There are also recent concerns regarding a near-communication line overgrown tree (currently open as of December 2024). The building has had two fire-related incidents recorded, though neither resulted in civilian injuries - one being a smoke detector malfunction and the other an invalid assist call. The property underwent reroofing in 1997 and had street space permits issued in late 2006, suggesting ongoing maintenance and infrastructure improvements over its lifetime. Recent complaints also indicate periodic challenges with garbage management in the vicinity, though these appear to be external to the building itself.
