479 35th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The property at 479 35th Avenue in San Francisco's Outer Richmond neighborhood is a two-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1925, currently owned by Jim and Kathryn M. K. Gong Hoyt.

The two-story flats/duplex structure has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the years, with the most recent being a facade renovation in 2022 that included repainting and dry rot repairs costing $6,000, which was completed with scaffolding and debris netting to ensure safety during the work. Prior improvements include a substantial electrical upgrade in 2005 that involved servicing the main system and installing three meters, as well as structural work on a retaining wall and building remodeling completed in 1990-1991. The building's history includes a cluster of maintenance issues in 2001, when multiple violations were recorded related to plumbing, electrical systems, and interior surfaces.

These violations involved problems such as a malfunctioning refrigerator, leaky bathroom pipes, clogged bathtub, and sink repairs, but records indicate these issues were promptly addressed and abated between April and June 2001. The building's maintenance record suggests regular upkeep, with recent work focusing on facade preservation, as evidenced by the 2022 dry rot repairs which were approved as in-kind work with no changes to the building's appearance or architectural detailing. The property's violation history, while notable, shows that all identified issues were resolved within a few months of being reported, and there have been no recorded violations or complaints in the past 20+ years.
