364-366 3rd Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

This two-unit residential building, located at 364-366 3rd Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Richmond neighborhood, has undergone significant renovations and faced several regulatory challenges since its construction in 1907. The property, owned by Stanley O. and Vickie C.

Cortes, completed major remodeling work in 2013-2018, including kitchen and bathroom updates, garage conversion to living space, installation of solar panels, and infrastructure improvements such as new furnaces and electrical systems. However, these renovations triggered multiple complaints and investigations between 2019-2020 regarding allegations of unauthorized unit modifications, including claims of illegal conversion from two units to one, misrepresentation of construction costs, and unapproved electrical work. Recent improvements to the property include the installation of an electric vehicle charger in 2021 and various plumbing updates in 2019.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to infrastructure upgrades, though there are concerns about past permit compliance. The property has experienced typical urban challenges evidenced by 311 calls, including parking enforcement issues, sidewalk cleaning needs, and occasional graffiti, particularly in 2009 and 2013. A building alarm system was activated without a related fire incident, and there have been no reported civilian injuries. While many permits have been completed successfully, the history of complaints and investigations suggests some past inconsistencies between permitted work and actual improvements, though most recent permits have been properly documented and completed.
