3733-3735 Geary Blvd, San Francisco, CA 94118

The property at 3733-3735 Geary Blvd is a two-story mixed-use building constructed in 1900, containing residential and commercial spaces, currently owned by Stanley Kwong Marital Tr. The building has experienced multiple compliance issues in recent years, with the most significant concerns emerging in 2024. Current active issues center around unauthorized modifications, including unpermitted awnings, a motorized security gate, and various signs for California Financial and Golden State Glass, leading to filed permits in August 2024 to legalize these modifications.

A notable safety concern was reported in May 2024 regarding metal and garbage accumulation creating fire hazards. There are serious fire safety concerns related to an allegedly removed firewall between units and improperly installed non-fire-resistant windows, though these complaints were marked as not active after brief investigations. The building's history includes several building code violations, such as an unauthorized window installation in 2021 and a vacant commercial storefront issue in 2018.

Multiple 311 calls have been received regarding the property, particularly concerning parking violations and graffiti issues, though these are more related to street-level concerns rather than building safety. Recent complaints have focused on unauthorized changes to the building's configuration, including claims of converting an upstairs apartment to office space without proper permits, though some of these complaints have been marked as not active following investigations. Two separate complaints have been filed regarding health and safety issues with construction work completed without proper permits, including concerns about a security gate's installation and a window's effect on neighboring properties' light and privacy. The property has a documented pattern of requiring post-facto legalization of improvements and addressing violations through permits, most recently seen in the August 2024 permit applications related to March 2024 violations.
