8 Doric Aly, San Francisco, CA 94108

The three-unit, three-story building at 8 Doric Alley in Nob Hill is a multi-family residential structure dating back to 1908, currently owned by the Florence Kong 2010 Trust. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, with the most recent major work being roofing repairs completed in 2018 ($3,000) and a comprehensive kitchen and bathroom renovation in 2015 ($35,000). The building's maintenance history shows attention to both interior and exterior upkeep, including proper window replacement in 2006 when three old window sashes were substituted with new double-glazed units following a Notice of Violation related to lead paint concerns.

The building has experienced various regulatory interactions over the years, with several violations and complaints requiring attention. Notable issues included a 2002 incident involving plumbing, electrical, and fire safety violations, along with lead paint hazards, all of which were abated by September 2002. A 2017 complaint regarding peeling lead paint on the exterior of the building was resolved by April 2018.

The property has undergone multiple routine safety inspections (most recently in 2015), and there were two instances of unauthorized work noted: a 2006 window installation without proper permits and a 2014 complaint about an unpermitted ceramic kiln. More recent concerns have primarily involved exterior maintenance and neighborhood issues, including several reports of blocked driveways in late 2023 and early 2024, and regular street cleaning matters as evidenced by multiple 311 calls for garbage and debris removal. The building retains its original character as a flats and duplex structure while undergoing necessary updates to maintain safety and compliance with building codes.
