771-775 Ofarrell St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The three-story multi-family residential building at 771-775 O'Farrell Street in the Tenderloin, built in 1923, consists of 6 units and has undergone several significant maintenance and safety upgrades over the past decade. Most recently, in October 2023, the building completed a sanitary lateral replacement, following earlier improvements including a subpanel replacement in 2022 and a voluntary fire system upgrade in 2016 that included control unit and smoke detector replacements. The building had notable maintenance issues between 2002-2012, including multiple violations related to interior surfaces, sanitation, and fire safety, most of which were resolved by June 2012.

These historical violations included problems with deteriorated paint (potential lead hazard), mold/mildew, window glazing, fire escape maintenance, and various interior surface issues. Three significant complaints from the 2004-2008 period addressed plumbing and fire safety concerns such as leaks, rusty fixtures, and missing smoke detectors, all of which were promptly resolved. The property has seen ongoing attention to building systems and tenant comfort, with various improvements including a kitchen and bathroom remodel in Apartment 42 (2008), and structural maintenance work such as reroofing (1991) and awning installation (2003).

Recent years have shown active management of both building systems and surrounding public spaces, with 311 calls mostly related to street cleaning, graffiti removal, and public safety concerns being promptly addressed. A series of complaints about garbage and debris on nearby streets was documented in 2024, though these were mostly exterior to the building itself. The most recent building-specific complaints have been resolved, and there are no active housing violations on record as of October 2023.
