7321 Geary Blvd, San Francisco, CA 94121

The three-unit residential building at 7321 Geary Boulevard in San Francisco's Outer Richmond neighborhood, owned by Edmend Lin and Shunjia Yu, has an interesting history dating back to 1986. Originally constructed as a three-story flats and duplex building, the property underwent several significant changes, including the installation of aluminum windows in 1988, and was built with attention to safety features such as a sprinkler system (though initial plans for a complete system were cancelled). The most recent major work attempted was in December 2020, when a like-for-like fire system replacement was proposed, including new panels, smoke detectors, and low-frequency sounders, but this permit was ultimately cancelled.

The building has experienced some maintenance issues over its history, particularly with moisture-related problems in the mid-1990s when dry rot repairs were needed for sliding door thresholds in multiple units. Unit #3 underwent a significant kitchen remodeling project in 2012, accompanied by electrical and plumbing upgrades, including new cabinets, countertops, sink, recessed lights, and receptacles. More recently, in 2020, the building received a fire violation for exit maintenance issues, which was subsequently abated.

While there have been numerous 311 calls related to the property's vicinity (mostly concerning street cleaning and parking enforcement), these are primarily related to the public space around the building rather than the building itself. The maintenance record shows regular attention to safety systems and living conditions, though it's worth noting that several permits from the 1980s and 1990s show as either cancelled or expired. The property has maintained compliance with safety requirements since addressing the 2020 fire violation, though the cancelled 2020 fire system upgrade project and the historical dry rot issues from the 1990s indicate areas of concern that have required attention over the building's lifetime. The recent pattern of 311 calls in the immediate vicinity has mostly revolved around parking and street cleaning issues, which, while not directly related to building conditions, could impact resident access and neighborhood maintenance perceptions.
