1721 Taraval St, San Francisco, CA 94116

The 3-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1721 Taraval Street in the Parkside neighborhood, constructed in 1944, is currently owned by the John D Moriarty Revocable Living Trust. The property has undergone minimal official improvements, with the most notable being a PG&E-mandated electrical upgrade in 2006 that converted the service from overhead to underground.

1721 Taraval Street has experienced a series of maintenance and safety issues over the past year, including a vacant commercial/business structure notice recorded in June 2023. The property has been the subject of numerous municipal service calls between late 2023 and 2025, with recurring issues related to garbage and debris, sidewalk maintenance, and graffiti.

Of particular concern, there are multiple open cases as of 2024-2025, including reports of missing side sewer vent covers, sidewalk defects, and graffiti on both the building and adjacent public spaces. The most recent tenant buyout on record was for a different property (2419 27th Avenue) in January 2021, involving one tenant, though it's unclear if this is directly related to the Taraval Street address. The building's current status suggests it is experiencing significant exterior maintenance challenges and displacement issues, particularly in the context of the surrounding urban environment where multiple sanitation and safety concerns have been documented.
