6239 Geary Blvd, San Francisco, CA 94121

The two-story, six-unit multi-family residential building at 6239 Geary Blvd in San Francisco's Central Richmond neighborhood, owned by the Stanley Dea Exemption Trust, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1972. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2016, bringing it into compliance with San Francisco's seismic safety requirements, at a cost of $85,000.

Other major maintenance work includes a $15,000 reroofing project completed in 2019, and foundation improvements through underpinning work performed in 1988, though this permit has expired. The building has a notable history of regulatory compliance issues related to fire safety, with multiple violations recorded in 2002 concerning the central alarm system and combustible storage, though these were promptly abated by September 2002. More recent building systems work includes a gas line inspection in 2019 and a garage door opener installation in 2005, both of which were completed.

The property has experienced various maintenance and environmental challenges in its vicinity, particularly in 2022-2023, including multiple reports of loose garbage requiring street cleaning, a sewage backup incident, and graffiti. An encampment cleanup was also reported near the property in April 2023, though enforcement was limited due to legal restrictions. While the building's major structural and safety improvements are complete, the surrounding area has faced ongoing urban maintenance challenges, as evidenced by the frequency of general cleaning requests.
