354-356 23rd Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

This two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building, constructed in 1924 and located in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood, has undergone significant recent renovations and faced some maintenance challenges. In 2024, major improvements were made including a comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodel ($100,000), the replacement of two furnaces ($2,800), plumbing upgrades including new fixtures and water heater installations, and electrical work involving GFCI outlet installations in bathrooms and kitchen.

However, these improvements were initially met with a building complaint filed in May 2024 regarding unauthorized work, including concerns about plumbing, electrical, and kitchen/bathroom renovations, though this complaint was marked as not active by August 2024. The building has experienced recurring sewer issues, with documented sewage backup incidents in 2013, 2018, and most recently in June 2024, suggesting a persistent infrastructure challenge. Other notable historical repair work includes a reroofing project in 2016 and structural maintenance in 1990 involving masonry work and porch repairs.

Recent building maintenance in 2024 also addressed ceiling repair work in the basement. The property has been subject to various health and safety inspections, including rodent/insect infestation concerns in September 2024, and a sewage discharge incident in June 2024 that required field inspection and resolution. While significant recent investments have been made to improve the building's systems and living conditions, the history of sewer issues and recent complaints about unauthorized work suggest areas requiring ongoing attention.
