786-788 Haight St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The three-unit multi-family residential building at 786-788 Haight Street in Hayes Valley, built in 1900, has undergone several significant renovations and faced multiple maintenance challenges over its history. The property features a ground floor commercial space (currently a dental office) and has seen substantial improvements in recent years, including a 2019 renovation that replaced front stucco and upgraded eight wooden windows at a cost of $13,000.

The building's systems have received attention over the years, with a 2012 gas line replacement, 2005 dental office electrical upgrade (200A service), and various plumbing improvements. Historical records show multiple housing violations between 1994 and 2002, primarily related to water damage, fire safety concerns, and interior maintenance issues, though all violations were eventually abated. Recent activity at the property has mainly consisted of routine maintenance and minor exterior work, with several street space permits issued in 2019 and recent 311 calls primarily concerning exterior graffiti and sidewalk cleaning in late 2024.

The building experienced two fire alarm incidents in 2024, though neither resulted in any fire or civilian injuries. A 2024 interim zoning ordinance was noted in the planning records, temporarily prohibiting new tobacco paraphernalia shops in the area, but this appears to be unrelated to the building's current operations. The property's maintenance history suggests periodic attention to various systems and structures, with most recent work focusing on exterior preservation and commercial space maintenance.
