770-772 Cole St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The property at 770-772 Cole Street is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building located in the Parnassus/Ashbury Heights neighborhood, constructed in 1905 and currently owned by Alvan Robert Teragawachi 20. The building has undergone several important events throughout its history, with the most significant period of fire safety concerns occurring between 2002 and 2008, during which multiple violations were filed regarding combustible storage and the need for automatic fire sprinklers.

These fire safety issues were systematically addressed, with most being abated by September 2008, along with some gas utility shutoff tool requirements. The building underwent electrical improvements in 2003 with the installation of ceiling lights in the front entrance of both units.

In recent times, particularly from 2023 to 2024, there have been multiple instances of sanitation and maintenance issues reported through 311 calls, including garbage and debris, abandoned Christmas trees, graffiti on the sidewalk, and even a report of human or animal waste in November 2023. The most recent building-related service calls have been for street cleaning and light maintenance issues, all of which have been resolved. While the building appears to be maintaining compliance with safety regulations since 2008, the frequency of recent sanitation-related calls in the vicinity of the property suggests ongoing challenges with street-level maintenance, though these issues are primarily external to the building itself.
