1931-1933 Hyde St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The three-unit residential building at 1931-1933 Hyde Street, owned by Kenneth Lee, is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1910 in the Russian Hill neighborhood. The property has experienced several significant maintenance issues over the years, most notably concerning the rear stairs and decks. In early 2008, a routine housing inspection revealed wood deterioration and decay at various structural components including treads, stringers, and joists, along with concerns about loose handrails and guardrails.

This led to a $2,500 repair project to address the dry-rotted portions of the rear stairs, which was completed in April 2008. Similar stair-related violations were documented in a 2001 inspection, along with issues regarding egress obstruction and general stair repairs, all of which were resolved by January 2001. The building's maintenance history also includes a reroofing project in 2003 costing $3,300, and a fireplace replacement and interior remodel completed in 1990.

More recently, the area around the building has experienced ongoing issues with garbage and debris, particularly in late 2024, with multiple reports of abandoned furniture and mattresses. There have also been several incidents of illegal parking reported near the property throughout 2024, with varying degrees of enforcement response, though most cases resulted in officers being unable to locate the violations. While these recent issues do not directly reflect on the building's condition, they indicate ongoing challenges in the immediate neighborhood regarding waste management and parking enforcement.
