Initial analysis

Located in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood, this two-unit multi-family residential building at 4808-4810 Fulton Street is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1923 and currently owned by Philbert & Margaret Tom 201. The building has undergone several significant improvements, with major updates occurring in 2011 including a comprehensive kitchen and bathroom remodel (totaling $15,000) with new plumbing, electrical work, and tiles, as well as the installation of two new furnaces ($8,000) with associated electrical and gas line work, all of which were completed successfully.

More recently, in 2021, a concerning building complaint was filed regarding a leaning wooden pole in the backyard, measuring 15-20 feet with suspected dry rot, though this issue was marked as abated by February 2022. The property has had various 311 calls primarily related to parking issues and park maintenance, with the most recent case regarding graffiti being resolved in June 2024. Historical data from 2019 shows multiple calls concerning illegal parking and encampments in the vicinity, while 2020 had a report about medical waste that was resolved. The building's permit history suggests proper maintenance and upgrading of essential systems, particularly in 2011 when major infrastructure improvements were completed, though the recent pole complaint raised concerns about backyard structures.
