623 17th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The property at 623 17th Avenue is a two-unit multi-family residential building located in the Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by Sheung Mei Yue Mar Survivin, and was constructed in 1986 following the demolition of a single-family dwelling that occurred in May 1985. The building has experienced significant plumbing issues in recent months, with multiple sewer backup incidents reported between April 8 and 23, 2024, all of which were resolved through fieldwork by PUC Sewer Operations.

Most notably, there have been recurring sewage problems documented through building complaints in April 2024, prompting repair work on the sidewalk to replace the building's sewer pipe connection to the main line. These plumbing issues required a formal permit for house trap repair in May 2024. The property has a history of various incidents affecting resident quality of life, including a significant building complaint filed in September 2021 regarding unpermitted work being conducted at night, during which construction debris was allegedly blown into the street and across sidewalks using a leaf blower.

The building experienced vandalism in early 2023, with multiple reports of non-offensive graffiti that coincided with a period of enforcement challenges due to pandemic-related ordinance suspensions. There have also been several parking-related issues documented through 311 calls, including illegal parking incidents in 2021 (resulting in citations) and instances of driveway blocking. While the building's plumbing issues appear to be the most pressing current concern, the property has experienced periodic maintenance and compliance challenges over the past few years that may impact resident comfort.
