1654-1662 Clay St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The 5-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 1654-1662 Clay Street in Nob Hill, owned by Clay Street Properties LLC, was constructed in 1906 and has undergone several significant renovations over the years. The most recent substantial work occurred in 2011, when a bathroom was updated with a tile shower and floor, along with kitchen improvements including new granite countertops and cabinets in unit #54, costing $13,000. A more extensive renovation took place in 2010, involving kitchen and bathroom remodeling with electrical panel relocation work, costing $18,000, which included installation of a 100-amp panel with five circuits.

Previous improvements include a completed kitchen remodel in 1999. The building has experienced some safety-related issues, most notably in April 2010 when multiple fire safety violations were documented, including problems with fire extinguisher maintenance, egress obstructions, fire escape ladder repairs, combustible storage, and security-related concerns with exterior doors. All these violations were promptly addressed and abated by May 14, 2010.

The building also faced one significant health-related issue in July 1999 concerning a dryer vent directing air into an adjacent unit, which was resolved within a week. Recent history shows relatively minor issues, with the most recent complaints being about parking violations in 2023 and 2020, as well as a pavement defect in the surrounding area in 2022. There have been no recorded fire incidents or civilian injuries associated with the building.
