1362-1364 Leavenworth St

This two-story, five-unit multi-family residential building at 1362-1364 Leavenworth St in Nob Hill was built in 1909 and is currently owned by Quon Cary. The building has experienced several significant events over the past two decades. Most recently, from late 2024 into early 2025, there has been a notable pattern of garbage and debris issues, with multiple incidents involving furniture and bagged waste requiring Recology intervention, totaling at least ten separate instances of street and sidewalk cleaning needs between November 2024 and January 2025. The building was declared vacant in May 2022, though this status was resolved by November 2022. Between 2000 and 2009, the property faced multiple safety and maintenance violations, including fire safety issues such as uncharged fire extinguishers and alarm panel certification problems, security concerns related to exterior door self-closing devices, and gas utility safety requirements. These violations were all ultimately abated by December 2009, and records indicate a reroofing project was attempted in 1992, though the permit expired. Most concerning from a resident safety perspective are the recent persistent garbage and debris problems in the vicinity of the building, which appear to be ongoing as of early 2025. The building's address has also been subject to routine housing inspections over the years, with all prior violations having been resolved, though the recent vacancy and ongoing waste management issues suggest potential ongoing maintenance challenges.
