354-356 19th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The property at 354-356 19th Avenue is a two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building located in the Central Richmond neighborhood. Built in 1974 and currently owned by Roman & Marina Sheyman, this apartment building has experienced several significant safety and maintenance issues over its history. A major cluster of fire safety violations occurred in 2002, including problems with fire proofing materials, fire extinguisher maintenance, smoke enclosure doors, and egress obstructions, though all these violations were abated by November 21, 2002.

The building also required gas safety improvements in 2002, including the installation of instructional diagrams and the provision of a gas shutoff tool. In 2007, there were additional fire safety concerns regarding combustible storage, though these violations were also resolved. The most recent significant issue on record is a plumbing complaint from 1998 regarding unpermitted work, which remains active. Recent activity around the building has primarily involved external maintenance and parking issues.

The property has faced several parking enforcement situations between 2019 and 2023, with multiple citations issued for vehicles blocking driveways. There have also been several reports of street cleaning and sanitation issues in the vicinity, including cases of graffiti and general garbage concerns in 2019, and a furniture abandonment case in July 2024. The building's permit history shows only one record from 1990 for re-roofing work, which is now expired. While the building experienced multiple routine inspections between 2002 and 2009, no major violations have been recorded in recent years, suggesting an improvement in maintenance standards, although this may also reflect the limitations of available public records for more recent dates.
