1456 Sacramento St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The 12-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 1456 Sacramento St in Nob Hill, managed by Lee Living Trust, has undergone several significant improvements and faced some maintenance challenges since its construction in 1924. Most recently, a reroofing project costing $28,000 was completed in April 2024. The building successfully completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 (Tier 3) with a $80,000 investment, demonstrating compliance with seismic safety requirements.

Recent concerns included heating issues, with a complaint filed in January 2024 regarding inadequate heat in habitable rooms, though this was reportedly abated by March 2024. The property has seen substantial interior upgrades, particularly in unit renovations between 2006 and 2022, including multiple kitchen remodels (Units 3, 4, 5, 7, and 8) with associated electrical and plumbing work, often involving new sub-panels and modernized fixtures. The building's maintenance history shows attention to both safety and comfort, with recent work addressing various systems including heating, plumbing, and electrical upgrades. However, there were multiple building violations recorded in early 2024 related to heating systems, lead paint hazards, and other maintenance issues, all of which were marked as abated by March 2024.

Historical records indicate regular routine inspections and prompt responses to various maintenance issues, including a fire extinguisher violation in 2021 that was corrected by April 2022. The property has maintained active compliance with building codes, including recent work to address lead paint concerns and the installation of necessary safety equipment. Additionally, the area around the building has experienced typical urban challenges, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls in recent years regarding street cleaning, parking issues, and sidewalk maintenance, though these are external to the building's management. The property's recent history suggests active maintenance and prompt response to tenant needs, with substantial investments in building systems and individual unit improvements over the past two decades.
