226 Point Lobos Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

226 Point Lobos Avenue is a three-unit, two-story apartment building constructed in 1976, owned by Cheng Li Ping, situated in San Francisco's Outer Richmond neighborhood. The building has undergone several significant modifications and faced multiple regulatory challenges over its history. In the early 2000s, the property underwent work to improve its condition, with permits issued in 2002-2003 to demolish partitions and restore original conditions, including electrical work.

Major compliance issues were addressed in late 2004, following a routine inspection that revealed multiple violations, including inadequate emergency egress from sleeping rooms, smoke detector issues, and concerns about combustible storage. These violations were officially abated by November 2004. Prior to these corrections, the building faced substantial safety concerns, particularly regarding fire safety and emergency egress, which had been documented as early as 2000 through complaints about an unauthorized apartment behind the garage.

The owner attempted in 1991 to expand the property with additional recreational facilities, but this permit was cancelled. The building's history includes several fire-related incidents, though none resulted in injuries, including a gas leak incident and false alarms. More recent activity at the property has primarily consisted of routine municipal service calls, including street cleaning, parking enforcement, and environmental health inspections, with the most recent building inspection complaint filed in February 2024. The property has maintained compliance with housing codes since the significant violations were addressed in 2004, with no active building violations or complaints on record.
