538 7th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

This two-story, six-unit multi-family residential building located at 538 7th Avenue in the Inner Richmond was built in 1963 and is currently owned by Jason Tan. The building's maintenance history shows three routine housing inspections over the past two decades: in 2000, 2010, and 2015-2016.

The 2000 inspection revealed multiple safety concerns including fire proofing violations, egress obstructions, central alarm system issues, and sanitation problems, all of which were addressed and abated by September 29, 2000. The 2010 inspection focused on the need for annual certification of the central fire alarm system, while the 2015 inspection addressed various safety requirements including gas meter instructions and shutoff tool provisions, all of which were subsequently resolved. More recently, the property has experienced recurring parking enforcement issues, particularly concerning sidewalk parking violations, with multiple citations issued for the same vehicle (a gray Volkswagen) throughout 2022-2024.

A sidewalk defect was identified and resolved in 2012, and there was one complaint about human or animal waste on the street/sidewalk in October 2021 which was investigated but nothing was found. All documented violations and complaints have been officially closed, with most being resolved in a timely manner. The building has not had any active violations or complaints on record since 2015-2016, suggesting improved compliance with housing regulations over the past several years.
