370 23rd Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The three-story, 14-unit apartment building at 370 23rd Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood, built in 1960 and owned by Tom Allen L, has undergone several significant renovations and maintenance projects in recent years. The building completed a major fire alarm system upgrade in 2020 to comply with fire code requirements, including the installation of low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas and monitoring modules for sprinkler systems. Between 2016 and 2019, the property underwent substantial exterior and interior improvements, including the replacement of siding and windows on multiple sides of the building, remediation of dry rot on decks, and various unit renovations.

Specifically, Units 4 and 6 received kitchen remodels with new cabinets, countertops, and electrical updates, while Unit 7/14 underwent kitchen renovations in 2021. The building has a history of addressing maintenance issues, including past violations related to interior surfaces and fire safety in 2000-2003, all of which were resolved. A recent complaint filed in January 2024 regarding the building's oversized driveway curb cutout has been marked as not active.

There have been multiple parking enforcement calls in 2024 regarding driveway blocking, though many resulted in officers being unable to locate the offending vehicles. The property has experienced some construction-related complaints in recent years, including concerns about work being performed without proper permits in 2019 and ongoing scaffolding presence in 2020, though these issues were ultimately resolved. Two fire incidents were recorded, though neither resulted in civilian injuries, and previous fire system and roof access complaints from 2008 and 2015 were corrected promptly.
