1378 Funston Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The 3-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1378 Funston Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood is owned by the Gee May S Revocable Trust and was constructed in 1953. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past decades, with the most recent major works including window replacements (2012 - $15,300), vinyl siding installation (2011 - $20,000), and reroofing (2010 - $5,760). Historical records show that the building was brought into code compliance in both 1984 and 1988, indicating previous structural or safety deficiencies that were addressed at those times.

The building experienced notable maintenance and safety issues in late 2020 through 2022, with a series of violations and complaints being recorded. In December 2020, multiple violations were documented, including issues with smoke detector compliance, dryer vent installation, fire extinguisher maintenance, plumbing repairs, and interior surfaces. These violations were officially abated by April 2021. A concerning complaint from December 2020 highlighted problems with black mold in the kitchen and bathroom, inadequate stairwell lighting, and plumbing issues affecting a tenant's shower.

More recently, in August 2022, there were reports of heating issues in unit #1, where a gas wall heater reportedly stopped working, though this issue was resolved by August 31, 2022. Two earlier routine inspections were conducted in 2000 and 2002, and the most recent building-related maintenance issues involved plumbing repairs and electrical system updates that were documented and resolved. Outside the building itself, there have been several municipal service requests regarding the sidewalk, including a lifted sidewalk in 2019 and a missing sewer vent cover in 2016, both of which were addressed by the Department of Public Works. While the building has had its share of maintenance challenges, particularly in the early 2020s, most documented violations have been resolved in a timely manner, with no active violations on record as of 2023.
