1352 10th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The two-story, 8-unit apartment building at 1352 10th Avenue in the Inner Sunset, owned by Steven Fang, has undergone several significant safety upgrades since its construction in 1968. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 at a cost of $100,000, bringing it into compliance with San Francisco's earthquake safety requirements (Tier 3). More recently, in late 2024, the fire alarm system received an important upgrade to meet current safety standards, including the installation of low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas and a new fire alarm control panel, at a cost of $30,200.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to structural issues, with records from 1997 documenting repairs to balconies including dry rot remediation and steel beam replacement. The property has experienced recurring issues with street cleanliness and parking violations in the surrounding area, with multiple reports of illegal parking and sidewalk cleaning needs documented through 311 calls from 2023-2024. While these external issues don't directly impact building residents, they do reflect on the General neighborhood conditions.

There is one active housing inspection case from 2019 related to common area maintenance that remains unresolved as of now. Previous major maintenance work includes reroofing in 2010 and structural repairs in the late 1990s, demonstrating ongoing attention to building upkeep. Two recent fire incidents were recorded, but fortunately, neither resulted in civilian injuries.
