1671-1673 Hayes St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The three-story multi-family residential building at 1671-1673 Hayes Street, constructed in 1904, underwent significant renovations and improvements throughout 2010, including comprehensive interior remodeling of all three units with bedroom reconfigurations, addition of bathrooms, kitchen and bath renovations, and infrastructure upgrades such as electrical rewiring and new plumbing systems. The property received seismic strengthening work in 2010, including foundation bracing and installation of plywood shearwalls and structural steel beams, demonstrating attention to building safety. Prior to these improvements, the building had some fire safety concerns documented in a 2003 inspection, including issues with fire extinguishers, gas utility shutoff tools, and stair repairs, though these were all addressed and abated by February 2017.

The most recent inspection in 2017 noted similar fire safety concerns, including the need for fire extinguishers and carbon monoxide alarms, which were also subsequently resolved. The building's maintenance history shows regular upkeep, including reroofing work in 2005 and repairs to dryrot-damaged areas in 2010. More recent issues primarily involve external matters such as waste management (resolved to ensure bins are stored properly) and some noise complaints.

Several 2020 parking-related complaints were addressed by responding officers but could not be validated. The property has maintained compliance with building codes following the 2010 renovations, though the extensive scope of these improvements (including structural, electrical, plumbing, and fire safety systems) suggests a careful focus on modernization and safety enhancements during that period. The current ownership, held by the Michelle K Cody Revocable Living Trust, acquired the property with significant improvements already completed, including installation of new heating systems and comprehensive unit updates.
