1346 16th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The 12-unit, three-story apartment building at 1346 16th Avenue in the Inner Sunset, owned by New California Land Company, was constructed in 1926 and has undergone significant improvements over the past decade, including mandatory seismic retrofitting as a Tier 3 soft-story building completed in 2016 at a cost of $110,000. Recent notable issues include the removal of an unauthorized deck flooring and fence in a southside lightwell in late 2022, which was addressed through building permit #202210285408.

The property has seen substantial interior upgrades between 2011-2014, including a major electrical service upgrade to 400-amp in 2013, multiple unit renovations with kitchen and bathroom improvements, window replacements, and plumbing system updates. Historical violations and complaints have primarily revolved around fire safety and maintenance issues, including problems with fire escapes, smoke enclosure doors, and a garbage chute in the year 2000, as well as concerns about lead dust and paint containment during 2008 renovations. The building's infrastructure has been progressively modernized through various permits, including sewer line replacement (2013), comprehensive electrical improvements, and multiple plumbing system upgrades.

Recent building maintenance issues have primarily involved exterior areas and parking concerns, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls regarding parking violations and sidewalk blocking in late 2024. The property has maintained generally good standing with building inspections, though there were some compliance issues noted in 2013 regarding renovation work and temporary facilities. The most recent inspections and permits indicate active management of the building's systems and prompt response to building code requirements, though there have been recurring issues with parking violations and street maintenance outside the property boundaries.
