1469 Sacramento St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The 7-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 1469 Sacramento Street in Nob Hill, owned by Desmond Walter Gee, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1912. Most notably, the building completed mandatory seismic retrofitting in 2017 as a designated Tier 3 soft-story building, with work valued at $130,000 plus additional revisions, demonstrating compliance with San Francisco's seismic safety requirements.

The building has a history of addressing maintenance and safety issues, including a comprehensive renovation in 2009-2010 that involved window replacements, seismic bracing for water heaters, installation of self-closing doors, removal of egress obstructions, and various building repairs, all of which were successfully abated by February 2010. Earlier renovations from 1986 included kitchen remodeling and exit modifications. Recent maintenance activity includes completed window replacements at the rear of the building in 2009 and a fire alarm system correction in 2015-2016.

The property has experienced periodic street-level cleanliness issues, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls for garbage, debris, and abandoned items between 2019 and 2024, though these were street-related matters rather than specific building issues. The building's documented history shows a pattern of addressing both routine maintenance and regulatory compliance, with no active violations or complaints currently on record. The most recent significant structural improvement, the seismic retrofit completed in 2017, represents the building's compliance with modern safety standards and regulations.
