408-410 Lawton St, San Francisco, CA 94122

The property at 408-410 Lawton Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood. Built in 1947 and currently owned by Leila Wing Yokoyama, this flats and duplex building has undergone several significant renovations and faced some concerning incidents over its history.

Most recently, in February 2024, the building received a substantial $26,000 upgrade to its front windows, replacing four units with energy-efficient Marvin wood aluminum clad windows with a maximum U-factor of 0.30. In 2013, the building underwent repairs for dry rot around the garage header and stucco work, though this period also saw serious safety concerns when two complaints were filed regarding construction work that allegedly removed the brick facade and improperly supported a balcony with 2x4s, though these complaints were subsequently marked as not active within a few days.

Additional upgrades include a kitchen remodel in 1988, reroofing in 1998, and a furnace replacement in 2011. The building has experienced some maintenance and safety issues, with an open sidewalk defect complaint from December 2024 related to tree root damage, and a documented gas leak incident (though without civilian injuries) at the address. The property has generated several 311 calls in recent years, primarily related to street cleaning, parking issues, and graffiti, though these are generally not directly related to the building's condition or safety.
