1159 Hyde St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The three-story multi-family residential building at 1159 Hyde Street in Nob Hill, owned by Zhou Sandy Hua & Lin Can, contains 6 units and was constructed in 1909. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most recent being a $24,000 kitchen remodel in Unit 5 completed in 2023, which included associated plumbing and electrical work. Of particular note is the completed soft-story retrofit (Tier 3) completed in 2016 at a cost of $54,000, bringing the building into compliance with SFBC Chapter 34B seismic requirements.

The building has also seen substantial heating system upgrades, including the installation of electrical wall heaters for multiple units in 2009. The property faced multiple housing code violations in 2009, which were addressed and abated by 2014. These violations included issues with the central alarm system, gas meter instructions, hot water heater seismic bracing, exterior door self-closing devices, and heating system requirements.

A building complaint was recorded in February 2023 regarding security concerns related to scaffolding and painting work, though this was quickly addressed within three days. The most recent plumbing and electrical work (though expired) in 2022-2023 involved gas houseline extensions. The building's recent history shows active maintenance and improvements, with all major historical violations having been resolved, though there have been several sidewalk-related maintenance issues in the surrounding area as evidenced by recent 311 calls.
