740 Leavenworth St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The 740 Leavenworth Street building is a 15-unit, 4-story multi-family residential apartment building constructed in 1924 and currently owned by Dyn Tr. The property has undergone several significant safety system upgrades in recent years, most notably a complete fire alarm system upgrade in February 2024 and modifications to the fire alarm system in June 2023 to meet current safety codes, including the installation of low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas.

However, there are currently open violations related to sleeping area requirements as of December 2023, while a previous sprinkler system violation from October 2023 has been abated. The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to essential systems, with a new steam heating boiler and domestic hot water equipment installed in 2014, following earlier improvements including a rooftop repair completed in 1988 and a parapet safety program completion in 1987.

The property has undergone routine housing inspections over the years (most recent in 2017), with several fire safety issues identified and subsequently addressed between 2010 and 2016, including fire escape ladder repairs, alarm panel certification, and smoke detector installations. While there have been multiple fire and building violations in the past, most have been promptly addressed, with the exception of the recent sleeping area requirement violation. The property has experienced some ongoing maintenance issues, as evidenced by various 311 calls for street cleaning and debris removal in the vicinity, most recently in October 2024, though these are not directly related to building maintenance.
