526-528 Hugo St, San Francisco, CA 94122

The property at 526-528 Hugo Street is a two-story, three-unit multi-family residential building located in San Francisco's Inner Sunset neighborhood. Built in 1905 and currently owned by Michael Okada, the building has undergone several significant renovations and improvements over the past few decades. Recent notable upgrades include the installation of a Tesla charging station in 2019, two kitchen remodels in 2014 (one costing $30,000 and another $18,000), and electrical system improvements.

The building has received substantial structural attention, particularly around 2010-2011, when major work was completed including rear stairway replacement (as second means of egress), foundation repairs, and voluntary sub-structural improvements involving anchor bolts, holdowns, and plywood bracing in the garage area, totaling over $50,000 in combined costs. Earlier improvements included a bathroom remodel in 2005 and a roof replacement in 1998. The building's maintenance history suggests proper upkeep and modernization of essential systems, with sewer repairs in 2008 and HVAC updates including a furnace replacement.

Historical issues related to illegal basement units were addressed by Housing Inspection Services in 1999-2000, though these complaints are now listed as not active. However, there has been a persistent pattern of parking enforcement issues near the property, particularly regarding sidewalk parking, with multiple citations issued between 2022 and 2024, including several incidents involving Tesla vehicles. The most recent building-related complaints have been limited to parking violations, with no records of interior building complaints or maintenance issues in recent years, indicating stable residential conditions within the building itself.
