2392-2396 16th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94116

The property at 2392-2396 16th Ave is a two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Parkside neighborhood, containing 4 units and built in 1945, with a combination flat and retail space. The building's most significant recent work occurred in 2018 when multiple electrical system upgrades were attempted, including the replacement of fused service and sub-panels with circuit breakers across three separate permits, though these became expired without confirmation of completion.

A set of comprehensive building violations were documented in May 2011, covering multiple safety and maintenance issues including the need for handrail installations, fire extinguisher recharging, window frame repairs, lead paint concerns, and various other compliance matters, all of which were officially abated by June 16, 2011. Prior to this, the building underwent reroofing work in 2005 at a cost of $6,900, and in 2011, additional handrail modifications were performed to comply with safety requirements. More recently, the property has been involved in relatively minor municipal issues, including multiple 311 calls regarding street maintenance and parking concerns between 2020 and 2025, with the most recent complaint in September 2024 regarding faded street signage still showing as open.

Notably, a Cottage Food Operator permit was approved for 2396 16th Ave to establish "L.H. Bakeshop," allowing for a home-based business within the existing dwelling unit. The building's historical records demonstrate a pattern of addressing maintenance and safety requirements when documented, with all major violations from 2011 being resolved within approximately six weeks.
