614 Castro St, San Francisco, CA 94114

The property at 614 Castro Street is a two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1940, containing three units and owned by Michael W. Vanni and Gayle Ing.

The building has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most recent major works including a window replacement project in 2013 ($15,000) involving the installation of aluminum-clad windows with rescue window requirements, and the replacement of three roof-mounted air conditioning units in 2014. Earlier improvements included a sewer repair in 2010, window replacements at the rear in 2007, and more substantial renovations in 2000 including the addition of a new stairway between floors and remodeling of both the top and first-floor units, which collectively cost $75,000. The building's history shows good maintenance practice, with most permits being completed successfully, though several permit renewal applications were filed in 2002-2003 that were not finalized until 2003.

There was one building violation in 2001 related to fire extinguisher maintenance that was promptly addressed within 18 days, and a complaint about unauthorized repairs in unit #3 which was resolved within two weeks. The property has experienced some neighborhood issues typical of the area, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls between 2018-2020 primarily concerning noise complaints and encampment reports in the surroundings. Planning records indicate a proposal to merge three dwelling units into two, though this remains marked as "Staff Initiated" without completion status.
