826-828 26th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

This two-unit multi-family residential building, located at 826-828 26th Avenue in the Central Richmond neighborhood, was constructed in 1928 and is currently owned by Helene Daigian Haroutinian. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past decade, with the most substantial renovations occurring in 2012-2013. These include a comprehensive bathroom renovation (March 2013) featuring tub-to-shower conversion, new fixtures, and vent installation; a laundry room refurbishment (December 2012) involving electrical work and gas pipe modifications; and a kitchen remodel (September 2012) that encompassed removing a non-load bearing wall, replacing cabinets, and extensive electrical upgrades including new appliances and smoke detector installation.

The building's electrical system received a significant upgrade in late 2012 with the installation of a new 200-amp service panel. Recent maintenance and infrastructure issues have affected the property environment, with records indicating multiple sewer-related incidents between 2020-2021, including flooding and a sewage backup that required attention from PUC Sewer Operations. The most current building-related issue appears to be a pavement defect reported in October 2023, which remains open as of the latest update. The property has experienced recurring parking-related challenges near its location, with multiple violations documented between 2018-2024, including citations for sidewalk parking and blocked driveways.

External to the building itself, there have been some street maintenance concerns noted, including a blocked sidewalk incident in August 2024, though inspections found no significant conditions affecting pedestrian access. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep and modernization work, particularly during 2012-2013, with no major structural alterations recorded. The property has maintained its original two-story flat/duplex configuration, and the documented improvements suggest proactive property maintenance. The infrastructure challenges noted in the 2020-2021 period appear to have been resolved, though the recent pavement defect report from October 2023 remains to be addressed.
