795-797 42nd Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121
The property at 795-797 42nd Avenue in the Outer Richmond is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1941, currently owned by James Hoi Kwong Kong and Ann So. The building's maintenance history shows several significant structural and safety improvements, including a reroofing project completed in 2021 costing $10,000, electrical panel repairs in 2014, and historical foundation work attempted in 1991 (permit expired) as well as removal of stucco and rotten wood in 1994. While these improvements indicate attention to structural integrity, the building is currently facing challenges related to its immediate surroundings.
The most pressing recent concerns involve numerous incidents of graffiti reported between July and December 2024, some of which remain unresolved as of the latest reports. Additionally, there have been multiple reports of garbage and debris issues around the property between July and August 2024, though these were resolved through proper channels. A tree maintenance issue was documented in November 2024 regarding potential damage to the building's window, though this is currently being handled through the city's scheduled maintenance plan under Prop-E.
The only parking-related incident recorded is from January 2025, which resulted in a citation for illegal parking near the property. The building's permit history suggests routine maintenance and upgrades over the years, though the relatively recent issues with graffiti and street cleanliness indicate some challenges in the immediate neighborhood environment. The property's documented improvements, including the recent reroofing, demonstrate ongoing maintenance attention from the current ownership.
