765 Geary St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The Plaza Group LLC-owned, 48-unit apartment building at 765 Geary St, constructed in 1911, is a 4-story multi-family residential structure that has undergone significant unit improvements over recent years, with most units receiving kitchen and bathroom remodels between 2016-2022, typically costing between $20,000-$35,000 per unit. The building has a notable history of elevator issues, with multiple complaints in 2020-2021 regarding operability and maintenance, culminating in a January 2024 incident where residents experienced extended elevator outages.

There are current active violations from May 2024 regarding boiler permit renewals that require attention. The building's fire safety systems have been a recurring focus, with recent violations in 2023 concerning sleeping area requirements and earlier issues with sprinklers, alarms, and extinguishers ranging from 2008-2023, though most have been corrected.

The property has experienced occasional maintenance challenges, as evidenced by tenant complaints about heating issues in 2020-2021, and during 2021 there were reports of unauthorized wall modifications between units. Recent permits show ongoing infrastructure improvements, including a filed fire alarm upgrade permit in July 2023, while historical permits demonstrate attention to safety features such as a rear exit access stairway added in 2017. The building's location has experienced some environmental challenges as indicated by multiple 311 calls in late 2024 regarding sidewalk cleanliness issues, though these appear to be external to the building itself.
