472 7th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

The 2-story, 4-unit multi-family residential building at 472 7th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Richmond district, owned by Diana E Shaw, has been maintained through several significant improvements since its construction in 1969. The most recent major upgrade occurred in 2022, when Unit 3 received new vinyl windows on the rear of the building, following similar window replacements in 2009 for Units 1 and 2.

The building underwent reroofing in both 1992 and 2009, with the latter project costing approximately $18,000. In 1999, a comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodeling project was completed. A noteworthy cluster of violations was documented during a routine inspection in December 2015, though all were promptly abated by January 2016.

These violations encompassed various safety and maintenance issues including fire safety concerns (such as fire escape ladders, fire extinguishers, and means of egress), structural maintenance requirements, and the need for proper smoke and carbon monoxide alarm documentation. The building has undergone several routine housing inspections over the years, including in 2000, 2010, and most recently in 2015, indicating regular oversight by housing authorities. While there have been multiple parking-related complaints and some issues with street cleaning near the property, these external matters generally do not reflect on the building's internal conditions.
