7333 Geary Blvd, San Francisco, CA 94121

The two-story, five-unit apartment building at 7333 Geary Blvd in San Francisco's Outer Richmond neighborhood, constructed in 1921, has undergone several significant modifications and faced various regulatory challenges over recent years. Most notably, the building completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2023, after a violation notice was issued in 2021 for failure to complete the required seismic safety work. This retrofit, which cost approximately $130,000, was necessary due to the building's classification as Tier 3 under the city's earthquake safety program, and was completed with a Certificate of Final Completion issued by DBI.

The property has seen multiple proposals for accessory dwelling unit (ADU) conversions, including attempts to convert the garage into a 316 sq. ft. ADU in early 2024 (both permits were ultimately cancelled) and a more ambitious plan in 2022 to convert the basement and first-floor garage into two ADUs at an estimated cost of $148,858, which was withdrawn prior to approval.

The building also experienced a period of administrative citations related to garbage and debris issues in 2024, with several reports between June and December 2024, though most of these were promptly resolved through standard cleaning procedures. A historical fire alarm system issue was noted and corrected in October 2011. The property's record now indicates completed compliance with its major regulatory requirements, including the soft-story retrofit, though the multiple cancelled and withdrawn permits for ADU conversions suggest ongoing challenges in expanding the building's unit capacity.
