230 Russia Ave, San Francisco, CA 94112

The property at 230 Russia Avenue in the Excelsior neighborhood is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1915, currently owned by Virginia Lopez. The building has undergone some significant changes over the years, including a $10,000 complete reroofing project in 2016 and the removal of illegal construction at the garage level (which included unauthorized kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom installations) and illegal structures in the rear yard, which was permitted in 2007 at a cost of $5,001.

That same year, the property was officially documented as a two-family dwelling through an administrative permit. In recent years, there has been a notable pattern of parking violations and enforcement actions around the property, particularly in 2023-2024, with multiple documented incidents of illegal parking and sidewalk parking. Between July 2023 and July 2024, there were ten separate parking-related complaints, most of which were addressed through officer response, with at least two resulting in citations.

The most recent incident involved abandoned furniture on the street, which was resolved by Recology. While these parking violations are primarily external to the building itself, they may indicate challenges with parking availability in the immediate vicinity. The building's maintenance record shows recent attention to structural upkeep, with the 2016 reroofing project representing the most substantial building improvement in recent years.
