220-222 Precita Ave, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-story multi-family residential building at 220-222 Precita Ave in Bernal Heights, owned by Diane C Smith, was constructed in 1906 as a flats and duplex structure containing two units. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past three decades, most notably a comprehensive kitchen remodel in 2017 that included electrical upgrades, new appliances, and LED lighting, with a permitted cost of $21,500.

Earlier maintenance work included electrical circuit upgrades to the kitchen in 1992 and replacement of rotted mudsill in 1991, both properly completed. The building's recent history has been marked by some concerning incidents, particularly a fire complaint in January 2024 regarding blocked exits, which was promptly corrected within two days.

The surrounding area has experienced recurring issues with street cleanliness and safety, evidenced by multiple 311 calls in 2023-2024 reporting human waste or urine on the street, and several parking enforcement calls between 2021-2022 for vehicles blocking driveways, though most of these were successfully addressed by responding officers. Additional external concerns included a pavement defect reported in November 2023 and exposed pullbox wires on a wooden pole noted in December 2021, both of which were resolved through appropriate channels. While the building itself appears to be actively maintained with proper permits and corrections to violations, the immediate neighborhood has faced ongoing challenges with sanitation and parking enforcement that may affect resident experience.
