262-264 Lexington St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The property at 262-264 Lexington Street in the Inner Mission is a two-story, multi-family residential building constructed in 1909, currently owned by Urmston Harmony, containing two units. The building has undergone significant recent improvements, with major construction work taking place in 2020-2024, including the addition of a 476 sq ft ADU on the ground floor, installation of solar panels (4.05 kW and 4.455 kW systems with energy storage), and re-roofing work valued at $11,800.

The property had substantial renovations in 2015, including kitchen remodels in both units, new gas lines, electrical circuits, and various other updates totaling approximately $39,500. Recent maintenance and improvements have focused on modernization and sustainability, including the addition of solar power systems and an ADU. However, there has been ongoing concern with pedestrian safety and cleanliness in the immediate vicinity, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls throughout 2024 regarding garbage and debris, including instances of human waste.

The building has maintained compliance with safety regulations, including the 2020 installation of a residential sprinkler system for the new ADU. A tenant buyout occurred in October 2022 involving two tenants for $15,000 at the adjacent 266 Lexington Street address, though specific impacts on this property are unclear. The property has demonstrated a commitment to modernization through recent upgrades, including the installation of energy-efficient systems and addressing housing demand through ADU addition, while the exterior environment has required attention to sanitation issues as noted in the 311 response calls.
