478-480 41st Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The multi-family residential property at 478-480 41st Avenue in San Francisco's Outer Richmond neighborhood, currently owned by the David & Pauline Soffa Living Trust, has undergone several documented modifications over the years, with the most significant changes occurring in 2007. During that period, the building underwent a kitchen relocation project, including plumbing work for the sink and stove, along with electrical improvements comprising the installation of lights, switches, and receptacles in the kitchen and bedroom areas, with all these permits being completed successfully.

An earlier permit from 1992 for vinyl installation appears to have expired without completion. More recently, in the latter half of 2024, the property has experienced several infrastructure and maintenance issues. Notably, there was a sewage backup incident reported in September 2024 through the side sewer vent, which was resolved through completed field work.

The building has also generated multiple reports of garbage and debris issues throughout 2024, with eight separate incidents reported between August and December, all of which have been resolved by the responsible agencies (including Recology and Public Works - Street and Environmental Services). These incidents involved various types of waste, including bagged garbage, loose debris, yard waste, and furniture. Most recently, there are two open cases from January 2025 - one regarding transportation engineering requests and another related to garbage and debris, though these are not directly related to the building's condition.
