1780-1782 Lombard St, San Francisco, CA 94123

The property at 1780-1782 Lombard Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Marina neighborhood. Built in 1926 and currently owned by Gary P. Marenzi, this flats and duplex building has experienced several significant maintenance and safety-related issues over its history.

Most recently, in December 2019, the building underwent repairs to its rear balconies, which had sustained damage, though this work represented less than 50% of the total structure and included the addition of new support columns. The building has a documented history of stairway and structural maintenance needs, particularly regarding the secondary staircases, which required repairs in both 2006 and 2005, along with wall framing replacement work at the ground floor tradesman entrance back stair landing. Earlier maintenance work included reroofing in 1997, concrete walk replacement, and installation of plywood shearwalls in 1990.

The building has experienced some recent challenges with building exteriors and surrounding areas, with multiple reports of garbage, debris, and graffiti between 2022 and 2024, though most of these issues were resolved by municipal authorities. There have been several elevator-related incidents requiring emergency services, including two separate instances of victim removal from stalled elevators, though thankfully no civilian injuries were reported in any of these incidents. The property's maintenance history suggests ongoing attention to structural and safety features, particularly regarding balconies and stairways, which have required periodic repairs and upgrades over the years.
