1390 12th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122
The 8-unit, 2-story apartment building at 1390 12th Avenue in the Inner Sunset, owned by Ng Trust, has undergone several significant maintenance and safety upgrades since its construction in 1954. The building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 (Tier 3) with improvements including plywood shear walls and holdowns. Recent major repairs include substantial work in 2022 involving replacement of damaged boards on front stairs and window siding, along with addressing multiple water-related issues including leaks through windows and ceilings, and termite damage.
The building has a documented history of maintenance challenges, particularly relating to water damage, with multiple complaints between 2013-2022 regarding leaks, ceiling issues, and structural concerns such as floor board stability. Historical violations from 2001 indicate previous safety concerns including stairs requiring repairs, fire extinguisher maintenance needs, and lead paint hazards, though these were resolved within a few months. More recent active violations from 2017 remain regarding fire safety requirements for carbon monoxide/smoke alarms and fire extinguisher maintenance.
The property's maintenance history shows regular attention to basic infrastructure, including window replacements (2013), reroofing projects (2012 and 1994), and various repairs to address decay and weather-related damage. The building has experienced recurring issues with garbage and debris management in the surrounding area, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls for street cleaning and abandoned items just in 2024. While many past violations and complaints have been resolved, the presence of active violations from 2017 regarding fire safety compliance suggests some ongoing maintenance challenges. A recent series of 311 calls regarding temporary encampments and illegal parking near the property was documented in late 2023 and early 2024, though these incidents appear to be street-related rather than building-specific issues.
