1017 Hyde St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The 6-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 1017 Hyde Street, owned by Winston & Brenda Lew Fmly T, was constructed in 1914 and has undergone several significant maintenance and safety improvements over the years. Most notably, in 2022, the building completed a seismic retrofit as part of the SF Wood Frame Seismic Retrofit Program, demonstrating compliance with modern safety standards. The building has also seen important infrastructure upgrades, including the replacement of a steam boiler in 2012 and reroofing work in 1996 (though this permit expired).

In terms of building maintenance and safety, the property faced multiple violations in November 2009 related to security and fire safety, including issues with exterior door locks, self-closing devices, interior wall conditions, and combustible storage. However, all these violations were promptly addressed and abated by December 2009. More recent concerns have been primarily related to street-level issues, with numerous 311 calls in 2024 regarding garbage, debris, and sidewalk blockages, many of which were construction-related.

The building has experienced several fire-related incidents, though none resulted in civilian injuries or significant damage; these incidents primarily involved detector activations, smoke removal, and contained rubbish fires. The property appears to be actively maintained with regular improvements to meet current safety standards, as evidenced by the recent seismic retrofit. However, the area around the building has experienced recurring issues with street cleanliness and maintenance, particularly in 2024, indicating ongoing challenges with the immediate neighborhood environment.
