1330-1332 16th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1330-1332 16th Avenue in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood, owned by Bo Kin Wong, has experienced several significant issues over its history. Most notably, there is an ongoing complaint from 2013 regarding an illegal kitchen installation at the ground floor, formerly a laundry area, which prompted a 2014 permit application to legalize the additional unit.

The building has a documented history of housing code violations from 2000-2007, including multiple fire safety concerns such as fire extinguisher maintenance, garbage chute repairs, and egress obstruction issues, all of which were eventually abated in December 2007. There were also concerns about gas meter safety and electrical system maintenance in 2001-2003. The property has undergone various improvements, including basement renovations in 2000 to add laundry facilities and storage, front exterior repairs in 2006, and roofing work in 1989.

More recent history shows relatively few internal building issues, though there have been multiple 311 calls regarding street-related concerns, primarily parking violations and sidewalk maintenance, between 2018 and 2024. A potentially concerning incident was recorded in 2023 involving a CO detector activation, though this was determined to be a malfunction with no injuries reported. The building's permit and violation history suggests a pattern of addressing code compliance issues, particularly regarding unpermitted modifications and safety concerns, though some matters are currently still pending resolution, most notably the 2013 complaint about the illegal kitchen conversion.
