798 Geneva Ave, San Francisco, CA 94112

The three-story, four-unit apartment building at 798 Geneva Avenue in San Francisco's Outer Mission neighborhood, owned by Mario & Gino A Gentile, has undergone several notable events since its construction in 1924. The property experienced a significant cluster of violations in 2005-2006, with multiple safety concerns being addressed between March and December 2006. These included fire safety issues such as an obstructed egress, a non-functional fire escape ladder, combustible storage problems, and missing smoke detectors.

Security concerns were also prominent, with violations related to insufficient entry door locks and issues with a rear entry door. Additional violations during this period involved electrical maintenance (including light fixture repairs), sanitation (dried plants and weeds), and structural concerns (handrails and water heater issues). All these violations were officially abated by December 19, 2006. The building's more recent history shows relatively few building-specific issues, with its most recent fire complaint in 2024 regarding weeds and grass being deemed without merit.

Since then, there have been no recorded building violations. The property has experienced several municipal service calls in late 2024 through early 2025, primarily related to parking enforcement and some instances of graffiti, though these external issues do not directly impact building safety or habitability. A fire-related incident was recorded in 2005 for a location at 2200 Alemany Blvd, citing operation without a fire department permit, which has since been resolved. While the earlier violations represented significant safety concerns at the time, the property has maintained compliance with building codes for many years now, with no active violations on record.
