353-355 2nd Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

The property at 353-355 2nd Avenue is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Richmond neighborhood. Built in 1911 and currently owned by the Charles Y L Wong Qtip Trust, this flats and duplex building has undergone several inspections and faced multiple safety-related issues over the years. A significant cluster of violations was recorded in November 2003, including problems with emergency exits, wood stair repairs, and the need for battery-operated smoke detectors at stair tops, though all these violations were abated by January 2004.

Another notable violation occurred in March 2010 regarding combustible storage, which was also resolved that same year. More recent structural improvements include the completion of a Ufer ground electrical system installation in July 2016, and a street space permit issued in June 2019. The building has undergone several routine safety inspections over the years, with the most recent one recorded in December 2015 through Housing Inspection Services.

The property has experienced various maintenance issues over time, as evidenced by a 2013 complaint about chipping exterior paint. The building's surroundings have been the subject of numerous 311 calls in recent years, primarily related to parking violations and abandoned vehicles, with multiple reports of driveway blockage in 2023, though enforcement officers were unable to locate the offending vehicles. Between 2014 and 2016, there were several reports of graffiti on utility poles in the vicinity, all of which were addressed by city crews. While the building has had its share of violations and maintenance issues, it's worth noting that all officially documented building violations have been resolved, and there have been no recorded building violations in the past eight years.
