1555-1559 California St, San Francisco, CA 94109

The three-story, multi-family residential building at 1555-1559 California Street, constructed in 1909, contains 4 units and is owned by the Donna Hung Ying Ho Trust. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past two decades, with the most recent being accessibility upgrades completed in 2022, including door threshold replacement, ADA push button installation, and entry landing adjustments costing $5,000.

In 2010, the building addressed multiple housing code violations, including seismic bracing of hot water heaters, stair repairs, interior painting, and installation of proper unit identification numbers, all of which were resolved by August 2010. Earlier maintenance work includes stair repairs in the rear yard (2010), vinyl siding installation (2006), and reroofing (2001). More recent history shows a period of vacancy observed in early 2023, with the property currently transitioning into a new business use as a Permanent Makeup/Cosmetic Tattoo establishment.

The building has experienced some recurring issues in the surrounding area, with multiple reports of garbage, debris, and public health concerns (including human waste) recorded between December 2024 and January 2025. Notably, a fire safety complaint regarding overcrowding was filed and resolved in September 2014. The property has maintained compliance with building codes since the 2010 violations were addressed, and recent improvements have focused on accessibility and building maintenance.
