1534 Hayes St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The 6-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 1534 Hayes Street in Park North, owned by Nordstrom Lvg Tr, was constructed in 1910 and has undergone several significant improvements over the years. Most notably, the building completed its mandatory Soft Story retrofit in 2017 at a cost of $60,000, bringing it into compliance with seismic safety requirements.

Between 2015-2016, substantial renovations were performed in Unit #1 including kitchen and bathroom remodeling, electrical upgrades, and plumbing work totaling approximately $32,000. The property has experienced maintenance challenges, with a documented history of repairs needed for dry rot in 2003, problems with emergency egress in 2004, and multiple violations in 2003 related to fire safety, electrical outlets, and stair conditions - all of which were subsequently abated.

More recent concerns include reports of water damage and mold in 2022, and several sidewalk-related issues reported in 2023, though these recent grievances have had their cases closed or marked as resolved. The building's maintenance and compliance history shows a pattern of addressing violations and completing required safety improvements, culminating in the successful completion of the Soft Story program and other significant building upgrades over the past two decades.
