378 19th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The three-unit, three-story apartment building at 378 19th Avenue in the Central Richmond district, owned by Jerry & Christina Cheng 200, was constructed in 1987-1990 after the demolition of a single-family home on the site. The building has undergone several significant maintenance and improvements over the years, including a 2017 exterior siding upgrade costing $38,825 and a 2002 restoration of deteriorated siding and structural members.

The property has been subject to routine housing inspections in 1999 and 2004, both of which were resolved without any noted ongoing concerns. In recent years, the building has experienced recurring issues with graffiti and exterior maintenance. Between 2022-2024, there have been multiple reports of graffiti on or around the building, including several incidents in 2022 that were affected by the pandemic-related suspension of enforcement of the San Francisco Graffiti Ordinance.

The property has also faced some challenges with waste management, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls regarding garbage and debris near the building. Of particular note are two fire safety complaints filed in December 2022 and January 2019 regarding Shared Spaces and combustible materials, though the 2019 violation was marked as abated. While the building's infrastructure seems generally maintained, the recurring exterior maintenance issues and graffiti presence suggest ongoing challenges with building presentation and neighborhood interactions.
