608-612 Hemlock St, San Francisco, CA 94115

The 9-unit multi-family residential building at 608-612 Hemlock St in Lower Pacific Heights is a two-story flats structure built in 1904 and currently owned by Seiki Justin S. The building has undergone mandatory soft-story seismic retrofitting as a Tier 3 property, with work completed and a Certificate of Final Completion (CFC) issued, indicating compliance with San Francisco's seismic safety requirements. The building's maintenance history shows regular fire safety compliance, with a fire extinguisher recharge violation recorded and promptly abated in February 2000.

Between 2011 and 2016, there were several routine safety inspections conducted by Housing Inspection Services, including one complaint about a non-functioning toilet in March 2016, though all issues appear to have been resolved appropriately. The most significant recent building-specific events occurred in 2016, when multiple street space permits were issued between May and October, each with a nominal cost of $1. More recently, between December 2024 and January 2025, there has been notable activity in the immediate vicinity of the building, including multiple reports of garbage and debris requiring street and sidewalk cleaning, with some incidents involving hazardous materials like glass and human waste.

There were also two reports of transit shelter platform damage in December 2024. The building experienced two notable fire-related incidents: a malfunctioning alarm system and a natural gas leak, neither resulting in civilian injuries. The property's immediate area has seen recurring issues with encampments and urban debris, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls for cleanup and maintenance services between December 2024 and January 2025, though these external conditions do not directly reflect on the building's internal maintenance record.
