977-979 Oak St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The property at 977-979 Oak Street in Hayes Valley is a two-story, multi-family residential building with three units, constructed in 1900 and currently owned by the Fuzhen Zhu Revocable Living Trust. In 2019, the building underwent significant renovations including a comprehensive interior remodel on both floors, with kitchen relocations, bathroom remodels, and additional bedroom/bathroom/laundry installations, totaling approximately $110,000 in construction costs.

The project also included structural improvements such as brick foundation replacement and bay window modifications, with associated plumbing and electrical upgrades including new furnaces and 100-amp service installations. These renovations followed a period of significant building maintenance issues in late 2014, when multiple violations were documented including rodent infestation, window and door weatherproofing problems, and smoke detector compliance issues, though these were all addressed and abated by January 2015. The building's recent history shows ongoing maintenance challenges in the surrounding area, with multiple 311 calls between 2022 and 2025 regarding sidewalk cleaning, graffiti removal, and waste management.

While there were two fire alarm incidents recorded (743 and 735) in the past, neither involved actual fires or civilian injuries. The most recent building permits and inspections suggest active property management, with 2019 improvements significantly upgrading the building's systems and living conditions. A 2019 complaint regarding garbage and debris was marked as not active, indicating resolution, though more recent 311 calls suggest ongoing exterior maintenance challenges in the vicinity of the property.
