168-170 Bernard St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 168-170 Bernard Street in Nob Hill, owned by Lee June, is a two-story structure built in 1906. The property has undergone significant recent improvements, most notably in August 2022 when both units received comprehensive electrical upgrades including the installation of new 125-amp services and a 300-amp main panel, along with kitchen repairs and faucet replacements, with permits totaling approximately $10,000.

A gas houseline extension was completed in February 2023, according to city records. The building's maintenance history shows an attempt at reroofing in 1999, though those permits are listed as expired. The property has experienced several concerning incidents over the years, with two major complaints in 2003 regarding unauthorized conversions - one involving the alleged conversion from a multi-family residence to a hotel with individually rented rooms, and another about unpermitted bedroom additions in the basement, which remains listed as an active complaint.

There were also safety concerns in 2013 about questionable scaffolding, and in 2017 about heavy construction noise. More recent building issues include a rodent/insect infestation reported in August 2020, and while multiple 311 calls regarding waste management (specifically toter placement issues) have been logged between 2020 and 2024, these are generally considered routine municipal service matters. The building's most recent structural updates and electrical improvements suggest a focus on upgrading essential systems, though the presence of pending complaints from 2003 raises some concerns about historical compliance issues.
