153-159 Clayton St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building at 153-159 Clayton Street in Park North, owned by Jer Clayton Properties LLC, has undergone significant renovations and improvements since 2018. The property, built in 1921, completed a comprehensive window replacement project in 2019 ($50,000) using Marvin wood windows to meet energy efficiency standards. Major plumbing upgrades included replacing galvanized water pipes with copper throughout the building, installing new water heaters, and updating bathroom facilities across multiple units between 2018-2020.

The building underwent substantial electrical improvements in 2019, including wiring upgrades, new circuit installations, and the addition of smoke/co detectors for safety purposes. A cancelled seismic retrofit permit filed in 2019 may indicate this work was not pursued, while a permit from 2020 shows additional electrical and plumbing work along with interior drywall repairs. The property has maintained active compliance with safety requirements, though historical records from 2003 indicate past violations related to windows, stairs, fire safety, and smoke detectors, all of which were abated by May 2003.

Recent records show regular maintenance and prompt attention to code requirements, with no current active violations. The building continues to attract attention for exterior maintenance, with multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding graffiti and sidewalk conditions, though these issues appear to be promptly addressed by city services. A significant proposed expansion of the building's dwelling units (adding four units for a total of eight) was filed in 2019 but the current status of this project is unclear from the available records.
