2536 Balboa St, San Francisco, CA 94121

This two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located at 2536 Balboa Street in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood was built in 1925 and is currently owned by Greg and Monica Blackford. The property has undergone two significant improvement projects in late 2020: the installation of four new wood-clad Anclerson XOY casement windows, replacing existing vinyl windows at a cost of $10,000, and substantial repairs to address extensive dry rot at the street-level facade, which involved removing stucco to expose the framing and sheathing, repairing and replacing rotted members at a cost of $8,000.

Both projects were completed successfully and received proper planning approvals, with assurances that no architectural features would be lost and that the work would be done in-kind. The building's maintenance and incident record shows relatively few issues over the past 15 years, with most incidents being minor and external to the building itself.

There have been several reports of abandoned vehicles in the vicinity (2008, 2010, 2024), a pavement defect report from 2009, and one complaint regarding a private tree in 2014 that was resolved. A recent interaction with the Rent Board occurred in November 2023 regarding fee housing inventory matters. While these external incidents have been documented, they do not directly reflect on the building's condition or management, which appears to be generally responsive based on the proper handling of maintenance issues and adherence to building permit requirements.
