586 Hickory St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The three-story, four-unit multi-family residential building at 586 Hickory Street in Hayes Valley, owned by CBE Investments LLC, has undergone several significant modifications since its construction in 1900. Most recently, in December 2015, the property received bathroom and kitchen remodels with electrical upgrades totaling $15,000. The building has a documented history of routine safety inspections by Housing Inspection Services from 1999 through 2019, with records indicating past issues that required remediation.

A notable set of violations was recorded in June 2007, including problems with garbage room ventilation, egress obstructions, and dryer vent issues, though these were all abated by August 2007. Earlier concerns include a 1996 complaint about steep steps to a lower apartment (currently listed as active) and a 1995 complaint regarding a leaking roof that was addressed in early 1996. The building underwent several structural changes in the 1990s, including the combination of two first-floor units in 1996-1997, installation of a forced air heating system in 1998, and various kitchen modifications.

The property has experienced recurring issues with street cleanliness and maintenance in recent years, with multiple 311 calls in 2024 reporting garbage and debris, including electronics, loose garbage, and the presence of needles near the property. There were also incidents of abandoned vehicles and graffiti in the vicinity during 2024, although these exterior issues were addressed by relevant city departments. It's important to note that while many historical building code violations have been resolved, there is currently an active complaint from 1996 regarding steep steps to a lower apartment that has not been resolved.
