4234-4242 25th St, San Francisco, CA 94114

The property at 4232-4242 25th Street is a 12-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1909, currently owned by Alison M. Takata. The building has undergone significant recent maintenance and improvements, with multiple completed projects in 2023-2024, including a complete reroofing ($22,000), extensive exterior work involving siding and stucco replacement ($25,000), and a kitchen remodel in Unit 5 ($25,000).

Historical records show major structural work in 2017 including slab replacement and lowering by 6 inches, along with a soft-story retrofit. The building's recent history has been marked by some tenant concerns, including a October 2023 complaint about construction debris and window issues, and a March 2023 complaint regarding inadequate heating. The property has maintained active compliance with safety regulations, though it previously experienced notable issues in 2002 requiring several violations to be abated, including problems with stairs, handrails, smoke detectors, and plumbing.

These were resolved by January 2004, and more recent fire inspections in 2019 and 2023 found no merit in complaints about blocks, combustibles, and extinguishers. The garage area has a historical record of being a commercial space, with several complaints between 1999-2002 regarding its use, which led to a 2018 permit application to convert the ground floor space to an accessory dwelling unit. The building's maintenance record shows regular upkeep and improvements, with 311 calls primarily related to routine issues such as parking and street cleaning in recent years. All major historical violations and complaints have been marked as not active or abated, and the building's soft-story retrofit work is complete with a Certificate of Final Completion issued.
