438 29th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The three-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 438 29th Ave in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Madeline & Howard Jow, has been on record since its construction in 1921. The property's most significant maintenance issue in recent years was a plumbing matter in May 2012, where a broken sewer line in the driveway required repair due to ground subsidence.

The building has experienced several infrastructure challenges in 2024, including a sewage back-up discharge from a catch basin (currently open) in August, a water main issue in September that was acknowledged by SFWD, and a notable pattern of illegal parking incidents in the vicinity, with multiple parking violations recorded between March and November 2024, leading to vehicle citations and towing in some cases. The property's earlier history includes a completed street space & sidewalk permit issued in 2012 (with an unusually low cost of $1.00) and an 1989 completion of an unspecified project recorded as "E.w.o.

(ns)." More recent municipal service interactions have primarily focused on parking enforcement, with multiple cases being handled by the MTA between March and November 2024, suggesting an ongoing challenge with illegal parking in the area. The building's location has also seen occasional issues with street cleanliness, as evidenced by a garbage and debris complaint that was resolved in October 2024.
