1350 Washington St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The 31-unit, 4-story apartment building at 1350 Washington Street in Nob Hill, built in 1911 and currently owned by Normandy Manor LLC, has undergone numerous significant renovations and faced several maintenance challenges over the past several decades. The most recent major work was completed in April 2024, involving the replacement of damaged sections of concrete retaining wall and footing at a cost of $40,000. The building has seen substantial safety system upgrades, including a 2019 fire alarm system modernization with monitoring equipment and a 2023 violation related to sleeping area requirements that remains open.

Other important improvements include the 2018 installation of a solar panel system (7.35 kW), the 2017 replacement of the hot water boiler, and various apartment renovations in 2010, particularly units 21 and 33, which included kitchen and bathroom remodels and the installation of high-efficiency lighting. The property has experienced some concerning events that merit attention. In 2014, there were multiple housing violations including mold issues, water damage, and a hole in the kitchen wall, which were ultimately resolved by May 2015.

The building's fire safety system has required regular attention, with violations noted in 2024 (extinguishers) and 2023 (sleeping area requirements), though most historical fire safety issues have been corrected when cited. Recent activity at the property shows multiple reports of abandoned items and debris on the property (including furniture, appliances, and mattresses) throughout 2024, suggesting ongoing maintenance challenges. While the building has experienced various routine maintenance and compliance issues over the years, records show that management has typically addressed violations and completed necessary repairs, with the notable exception of some recent garbage and debris management concerns.
