1150-1156 Greenwich St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The 4-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 1150-1156 Greenwich Street in Russian Hill, owned by the Michels Family Trust, has undergone several significant improvements and faced various challenges since its construction in 1948. Most recently, in September 2022, Unit 4 received substantial upgrades including a kitchen and bathroom remodel, along with electrical enhancements such as recessed lighting installation, with a total investment of $30,000. Notable safety improvements were implemented in 2020 with the complete rewiring of the building to replace old knob & tube wiring, and the building underwent reroofing work in both 1990 and 2016, indicating regular maintenance of major systems.

The building faced multiple violations in September 2017, all of which were subsequently abated by November 2017, including issues with rodent infestation, leaking pipes, damaged ceilings, window hardware, loose boards, fire extinguisher tags, and security locks. These violations corresponded with complaints about mold/mildew in bathrooms, roof leaks, and lighting issues in common areas. More recent maintenance issues include a sewage backup incident in January 2022.

There have been several parking-related enforcement actions near the property between 2019 and 2023, with multiple citations issued for driveway blocking, though these are not directly related to building conditions. The property has undergone regular housing inspections, including routine inspections in 2002 and 2005, showing compliance with housing standards, while also being the subject of various 311 calls for different issues over the years. A controlled burning incident was recorded but resulted in no civilian injuries.
