1298 12th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

This three-story, four-unit multi-family residential building located at 1298 12th Avenue in the Inner Sunset neighborhood was built in 1908 and is currently owned by the Fong 88 Family Living Trust. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most substantial work occurring in 2007-2008 when bathroom and kitchen renovations were attempted on multiple floors, though these permits ultimately expired. In 2004, the building received accessibility upgrades to both entrances including new power-operated doors and concrete sidewalks, along with corresponding electrical work.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural issues dating back to the 1980s, with termite repairs in 1985 and maintenance work on side service stairs in 1984. Recent plumbing work in 2014 included the installation of multiple sinks, and there have been several fire alarm system activations noted, though all were attributed to system malfunctions with no injuries reported. Of particular note is a recent pattern of sanitation issues in the immediate vicinity of the building, with multiple reports of overflowing garbage cans and debris on the street between October 2024 and January 2025.

While these reports are not directly related to the building's internal condition, they may indicate some ongoing challenges with waste management in the area. The property has maintained its permitted use as a limited restaurant/specialty store, with recent health referrals noting its continuation within the Inner Sunset neighborhood. The building's history shows regular maintenance and upgrading efforts, with particular attention paid to plumbing, electrical systems, and accessibility features.
