2735-2737 Hyde St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The 2735-2737 Hyde Street property is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building with a ground floor garage that was converted into a restaurant space, located in San Francisco's Russian Hill neighborhood. Built in 1927 and currently owned by David T.

Ho, this flats/duplex building has undergone significant modifications since 2016, with the most substantial changes occurring during a 2016-2022 renovation period that included the conversion of the garage space to a restaurant and various infrastructure upgrades. The renovation project involved multiple permits and inspections, including the installation of a new fire suppression system for kitchen equipment ($6,000 in 2022), comprehensive plumbing work including sewer pipe replacement and new restaurant fixtures, and electrical system upgrades such as a 400A service installation and panel work ($88,000 total in 2019). Of particular note, there was one formal building complaint filed in 2016 regarding weekend construction noise from the garage conversion, and multiple permits were issued for revisions and completions of the restaurant conversion project, including the recent 2023 permit for documenting as-built conditions.

The building's maintenance history includes a 2014 reroofing project ($14,500), and there were three significant housing-related complaints recorded between 1994-1999, primarily concerning electrical service issues and water damage, though these were resolved over 24 years ago. Recent issues documented through 311 calls (2020-2024) have been primarily related to external matters such as graffiti and street cleaning, rather than building-specific concerns. The property's renovation work has been extensively documented through multiple permit types including building, plumbing, and electrical, with all major work receiving appropriate inspections and approvals, suggesting that the building systems have been substantially upgraded and modernized through the recent construction period.
