3251-3253 20th St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The property at 3251-3253 20th Street, located in San Francisco's Inner Mission neighborhood, is a two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1900 and currently owned by the Stephen V King Revocable Trust. Recent activity at the property has been minimal in terms of residential-related permits, with only a 2024 fire violation for weeds and grass, though there are two open violations from September 2024 regarding vegetation and improper combustible storage.

The building has undergone several significant improvements over the years, including the installation of a new fire sprinkler system in 2013 covering levels 1, 2, and 3. The property has experienced some accessibility-related issues, most notably in 2011 when the power door operator to the elevator lobby from the parking level malfunctioned, though this was resolved within a month. The building's recent inspection history shows maintenance of basic safety systems, though there was a 2022 complaint about construction noise from nearby establishments.

A series of parking enforcement calls between October 2024 and early 2025 indicate ongoing issues with driveway access, though many of these cases were addressed by responding officers. Historical records show substantial modifications and improvements made to the building over the years, including multiple fire sprinkler system updates, plumbing work for various retail spaces, and electrical modifications for tenant improvements. The property has maintained generally good compliance with safety requirements, with most historical violations being promptly addressed, though some expired permits from the 1990s and 2000s are still on record.
