1620 Jones St, San Francisco, CA 94133

The four-story, 8-unit multi-family residential building at 1620 Jones Street in Nob Hill, constructed in 1908, has undergone several significant improvements and maintenance projects over the past two decades, with particular attention to safety and modernization. Most recently, in late 2021, Unit 4 received a comprehensive renovation including kitchen and bathroom remodels, while in 2020, the building benefitted from window replacements in units 2, 4, 6, and 8, involving 16 vinyl double-pane windows in the lightwell. The building has successfully completed mandatory seismic safety improvements, including a soft-story retrofit in 2017 (Tier 3, CFC issued) and a voluntary seismic upgrade in 2006 that included foundation bolting and installation of shear ply.

Earlier maintenance work includes reroofing projects in 2014 and 1992, and repair of damaged rear stairs in 2000. The building's history includes several routine inspections and some violations that have since been resolved. Notably, a cluster of violations in 2013 related to lead paint hazards and a complaint about painting work not being properly contained were all abated by October 2013.

The building has maintained compliance with housing codes since then, with the most recent complaint in 2016 being routine in nature. Recent 311 calls from 2022 to 2025 have primarily concerned external issues such as graffiti, garbage, and parking concerns rather than building-specific problems. The property's maintenance record suggests regular upkeep and addressing of safety requirements, with no active building violations on record as of the latest data.
