724 Leavenworth St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The 14-unit, three-story apartment building at 724 Leavenworth Street, owned by Martland Fmly 2020 Tr, has undergone several significant maintenance and upgrade projects since its construction in 1909. Most notably, the building has seen substantial electrical system improvements, with recent rewiring work in 2022-2023 covering multiple units, including Apts E & F (2022), a kitchen & bathroom remodel (2019), and various unit rewiring projects between 2014-2017. Major infrastructure work includes a complete sewer line and house trap replacement (2021), exterior corridor drain line replacement (2019), steam boiler replacement (2014), and a reroofing project (2011).

The building has also experienced several periods of construction activity that generated tenant complaints, particularly in 2019, when multiple complaints were filed regarding work being conducted without proper permits and associated noise and dust issues. More recently, there have been active building violations (since March 2024) related to fire safety equipment, specifically concerning fire extinguisher date tags and compliance affidavits. The property's fire safety systems have been the subject of multiple inspections and complaints over the years, with several violations related to sprinklers, fire extinguishers, and blocked exits.

While most historical violations have been abated, including a sprinkler/5-year service violation and extinguisher/service required violation from 2018, there seem to be recurring issues with maintaining fire safety equipment, as evidenced by recent complaints in 2023-2024. The building has also had various plumbing and mechanical upgrades, including multiple street space usage permits in 2019-2023 and several routine maintenance items being addressed through permits. Recent 311 calls (from late 2023 to present) typically relate to street cleaning and debris issues in the surrounding area, rather than problems with the building itself.
