455 4th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

This two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located at 455 4th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Richmond district was built in 1910 and is currently owned by Roberta L. and Milton Chew. The property experienced significant maintenance issues in 2007, with multiple complaints filed by tenants regarding inadequate heating, hot water problems, and various maintenance concerns in unit #457, including a leaking toilet, malfunctioning stove/oven, and issues with front and back doors.

These problems culminated in an August 2007 complaint that documented violations of heating and plumbing requirements, security concerns, and the need for proper permits for furnace work. These violations were addressed by September 18, 2007, when the landlord completed the installation of a new furnace and air duct system, costing $7,500. Prior to this, an April 2007 complaint had already raised concerns about inconsistent heating and hot water access issues that affected tenants' payment responsibilities for PG&E utility bills.

Since 2007, the building's documented issues have primarily consisted of normal urban living occurrences, with no major building violations or tenant complaints on record. The most recent service calls from 2019-2020 involved routine matters such as street cleaning and parking enforcement, as well as reports of abandoned vehicles on the street outside the property. The absence of any recent housing-related complaints or violations over the past two decades suggests that the building has maintained its systems and addressed previous tenant concerns, though it's worth noting that no building systems inspections or major renovations have been documented since the 2007 furnace replacement.
