The property at 4186-4192 17th Street is a two-story multi-family residential building located in the Corona Heights neighborhood, containing four units and owned by the Achterkirchen Family Trust. Built in 1904, this TIC building has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades. Most recently, in 2018, a bathroom remodel was completed including a stand-in shower and skylights, along with electrical panel relocation and bathroom wiring updates.

In 2016-2018, there were multiple window replacement projects, including the installation of wood double-hung windows with improved energy efficiency features. The building underwent substantial electrical upgrades in 2006, including 200-amp service installation and subpanel additions, and kitchen and bathroom remodels were completed in multiple units during the same period. The building has a history of addressing safety concerns, particularly regarding lead paint and fire hazards. A significant cluster of violations was recorded in 2001, involving lead paint hazards, fire egress issues, and structural concerns, though these were all abated by December 2003.

A variance was approved in 2020 to legalize a deck and hot tub installation. More recently, there was a short-term rental violation investigated in 2019 regarding unit 4188, which was subsequently abated when the listing was removed. The property has undergone regular routine inspections by Housing Inspection Services in 2001, 2009, and 2010, with all cases being closed. The most recent activity outside the building's main operations includes several 311 calls in 2023-2024 regarding parking, graffiti, and street maintenance issues, none of which directly relate to building safety or habitability.
