711 Leavenworth St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The four-story, 35-unit multi-family residential building at 711 Leavenworth Street, owned by Grm Properties LLC, was constructed in 1916 and has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects over the past decade. Most recently, there is an active complaint regarding sleeping area requirements from December 2023, and the building has faced recurring issues with water shutoffs, notably in 2020, when residents reported multiple instances of water being turned off for extended periods without prior notice. The property has a history of elevator-related incidents, with multiple emergency responses required for trapped residents, and a notable pattern of fire alarm activations, though these were predominantly false alarms or system malfunctions with no reported injuries.

The building underwent several important accessibility improvements in 2019, including the installation of an automatic door closer and threshold modifications to comply with disability requirements. In recent years, the building has experienced some management challenges, including an active complaint from January 2025 regarding the absence of an apartment manager in the 31-unit building. There have been multiple instances of construction-related concerns, particularly during the early months of 2020 when work was allegedly performed in violation of shelter-in-place orders.

Historical records show a significant facade issue along the Post Street side of the building that persisted from 2006 until 2018, along with various maintenance and compliance matters, including violations related to fire safety systems, smoke detection, and fire escape maintenance. The building's management has undertaken several rehabilitation projects, including unit 47 renovations in 2020 and various system repairs, though there have been multiple instances of failure to file required annual unit usage reports. Recent 311 calls from 2024 primarily concern street-level issues such as debris and graffiti, though a December 2024 call reported human waste or urine on the property.
