The two-unit residential building at 716 Douglass Street in Noe Valley is a one-story flats and duplex structure built in 1893, currently owned by Michael W. Runner. The property has undergone several significant renovations, with the most recent work being painting and drywall repairs in the bathroom area in August 2024 (cost: $10,000), along with the replacement of two gas water heaters in March 2024.

Between 2007 and 2011, the building underwent substantial improvements including a comprehensive remodel of kitchen and bathroom facilities, installation of new windows, ceiling work, and significant electrical upgrades including a new 200-amp service installation. The 2007-2008 renovation period also saw the addition of new living space, windows, and improved ventilation features, while earlier records show completion of essential maintenance such as reroofing work and replacement of front and rear stairs due to dry rot in 2001. The building's recent history shows no major structural or safety issues, though there have been multiple 311 calls in the surrounding area between 2022 and 2024, primarily regarding abandoned vehicles and street maintenance matters.

A single fire incident was recorded, but it was limited to a malfunctioning alarm system with no civilian injuries reported. The most pressing recent building-related attention has focused on basic maintenance and systems upgrades, including multiple heating system replacements and interior repairs, suggesting regular upkeep of the property by the current ownership. The most recent building and plumbing work in 2024 indicates ongoing maintenance of the property's essential systems.
