1153-1157 Taylor St, San Francisco, CA 94108

The three-story multi-family residential building at 1153-1157 Taylor Street in Nob Hill, owned by the Kwong Family Trust, was constructed in 1906 and contains four units. The building's documented history includes several significant maintenance and compliance events, with the most pressing current issues being two active plumbing concerns from 1997 - a broken house trap and sewage in a sidewalk telephone and cable box. The structure underwent waterproofing improvements in 1999 and received underpinning work in 1983.

A series of inspections and violations between 2001 and 2015 revealed various maintenance issues that were subsequently addressed, including problems with egress obstruction, peeling paint, weatherproofing, expired fire extinguishers, and combustible storage concerns, though all these violations are now marked as not active. Recent activity at the property has primarily consisted of parking-related complaints, with multiple enforcement actions recorded between August and December 2024, resulting in several citations. A damaged tree complaint was accepted for investigation in September 2024.

The building has undergone multiple routine safety inspections over the years, with the most recent routine inspection occurring in February 2016. Notably, there were documented concerns about lead paint in the 2015 complaints, along with a violation related to garbage container placement, though these issues were addressed by September 2015. The property's historical records demonstrate a pattern of addressing maintenance issues through compliance actions, with no recent building violations or complaints logged since 2016, aside from the two outstanding plumbing issues from 1997.
