742 21st Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

This two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building, located in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood, was constructed in 1921 and is currently owned by Stephen H. Woo and Eleanor Q. Woo.

The building's documented history includes two significant structural improvements: a voluntary seismic upgrade with anchor bolts installed in 1990 and the addition of new restroom, workshop, and storage facilities in the garage completed in 1991, both of which were executed properly under building permits. The property has experienced recurring issues with parking violations in recent years, particularly between 2021 and 2023, with three documented cases of sidewalk parking, including one incident in October 2022 that resulted in a citation. The most recent parking-related incidents occurred in March and May 2023, though officers were unable to locate the reported vehicles in both cases. The building's vicinity has also faced general street maintenance challenges, as evidenced by three separate reports of loose garbage and street cleaning needs in early 2021, all of which were resolved.

Between 2018 and 2021, there were several complaints about potentially abandoned vehicles, though these were mostly found to have no merit upon investigation, with vehicles either being legally parked or gone upon officers' arrival. The building's age and improvement history suggest attention to structural integrity through the seismic upgrade, while the maintenance of garage facilities demonstrates ongoing property upkeep. The recent pattern of parking-related complaints may indicate increased street activity in the area, though it's worth noting that many reports were either unvalidated or resulted in no enforcement action. The concentration of street cleaning issues in early 2021 could represent a temporary maintenance challenge in the neighborhood.
