774-784 Pine St, San Francisco, CA 94108

The 6-unit, 3-story multi-family apartment building at 774-784 Pine Street, owned by Lee Living Trust and constructed in 1908, has experienced several significant events throughout its history. Most notably, the building suffered fire damage in April 2015 affecting the rear of the structure and top two units, leading to electrical power and water service being shut off. This incident prompted multiple building violations, including issues with interior surfaces, weather-proofing, heating sources, and the need for permits, many of which remain active.

In the aftermath, extensive repairs were undertaken between 2015-2018, including a kitchen and bathroom remodel in multiple units, a 400-amp electrical service upgrade, and the installation of new HVAC systems. Recent improvements include a complete furnace replacement for all units in 2024, indicating ongoing maintenance by the owner. The building's systems have undergone multiple inspections and maintenance addressing various fire safety concerns, including alarm systems and sprinkler systems, with most issues marked as "Condition Corrected." The property has maintained active compliance with building codes through various permits, though some permits show as expired.

Recent maintenance issues have persisted, with multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding flooding, sewer damage, tree root problems, and graffiti. The building's location in Downtown SF has resulted in typical urban maintenance challenges, as evidenced by 311 calls in 2024. Notably, there was a period in 2015 when construction work was initiated without proper permits, causing significant resident disruption, particularly regarding unusable kitchen and bathroom facilities. However, more recent records show consistent permit activity for building improvements, suggesting better compliance with construction regulations.
