901-911 Greenwich St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The three-story multi-family residential building at 901-911 Greenwich Street in Russian Hill, built in 1907, contains 6 units and is currently owned by the John C Jew Living Trust. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past decade, with the most notable being a completed soft-story retrofit in 2017 (classified as Tier 3) that brought the building into compliance with San Francisco seismic safety requirements.

In 2022, the building underwent plumbing work including the replacement of the sewer house trap and associated piping, and an electrical survey inspection was also conducted. The building has had its share of maintenance issues, including exterior wall repairs in 2017 following damage from a truck accident, and major window work in 2015-2017 where 27 street-facing windows were replaced, initially without proper permits, resulting in code violations that were eventually resolved through proper permitting and installation. Historical records show earlier modifications including a roof replacement in 1993 and a laundry room conversion to a bathroom in 1992.

The building has undergone regular routine inspections, with a notable cluster of violations documented in December 2005 related to fire safety systems, smoke enclosures, and building maintenance, though these were all abated by February 2006. More recent activity around the building has primarily involved street maintenance issues, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding garbage and debris, though these are external to the building's operations and were all resolved promptly. The property has had two documented fire-related incidents, both of which were minor: one was a smoke detector activation without fire, and the other was a public service assistance call, with no civilian injuries reported in either incident.
