253-255 Lexington St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The property at 253-255 Lexington Street is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood, owned by Wing Cheong & Lai Lie Leung and constructed in 1907. The building has undergone several significant improvements in recent years, with the most substantial work occurring in 2014, when comprehensive bathroom renovations were completed, including repairs to water-damaged walls, floor tiles, bathtub, and fixtures across multiple permits (totaling over $9,000 in bathroom-related work alone, plus electrical and plumbing upgrades).

That same year, the building received a major electrical upgrade, installing a 200-amp service with three meters and additional electrical enhancements. More recently, in 2018, a street space permit was issued, though at a nominal cost of $1. The building's maintenance history shows consistent upkeep, particularly of common areas, with multiple general cleaning requests recorded through the city’s 311 system.

While there have been several reports of sidewalk cleanliness issues, including loose garbage (notably in 2022) and instances of human or animal waste (notably in April 2022 and July 2023), these were primarily street-level concerns affecting the immediate vicinity rather than building-specific issues. The property has experienced two notable graffiti incidents in mid-2023 (June), though these were administrative closures, suggesting they were not resolved through standard procedures. The frequency of general cleaning requests has decreased in more recent months, with no building-specific complaints recorded since mid-2023.
