351 5th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

The two-story multi-family residential building at 351 5th Avenue in the Inner Richmond, owned by Ho Fmly Tr, was constructed in 1974 and contains 4 units. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, including the installation of 16 energy-efficient vinyl windows in 2012 (cost: $8,800) and a complete reroofing project in 2008 (cost: $13,700), with an earlier reroofing documented in 1991. Between 2003 and 2010, the building experienced multiple housing inspection events that raised various fire safety concerns, including issues with smoke detectors, combustible storage in the garage area, emergency exits, and garbage room fire safety.

All these violations were addressed and abated by June 20, 2003, with subsequent inspections in 2010 also being resolved. The most recent building-related issues include a sidewalk defect reported in November 2024, which was promptly addressed and resolved, and a graffiti incident from July 2023, which was part of a larger enforcement backlog due to pandemic-related policy changes. The property has maintained a relatively stable record since the 2003-2010 inspection period, with no new building violations or major safety concerns reported.

Recent 311 calls have primarily been for external issues such as graffiti and sidewalk maintenance, with a still-open report from March 2023 regarding a garbage can repair. The building's only recorded fire incident was a public service response with no civilian injuries noted. The property's maintenance history shows regular upkeep and addressing of both cosmetic and safety-related issues, particularly during the early 2000s when multiple violations were documented.
