26-30 Hugo St, San Francisco, CA 94122

The property at 26-30 Hugo Street is a 4-story, 3-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1904, currently owned by the John E Newlin Revocable Trust. The building underwent significant renovations in 2008-2009, including the construction of a new fourth level with living space, installation of a complete fire alarm system, replacement of furnaces with three new boilers, and the addition of various modern amenities such as new bathrooms, deck, windows, and skylights.

The renovation work included comprehensive safety upgrades, with the installation of a 2-inch sprinkler system, complete electrical panel upgrades, and a new roofing system, all of which were successfully completed. The building has a history of routine housing inspections, with the most recent occurring in 2017. Some violations were recorded in 2003 related to fire safety systems and building maintenance, but these were abated by September 2003.

Recent maintenance issues have primarily involved external infrastructure, including a sidewalk defect in 2019 and a sewage back-up discharge in 2024, which were addressed by city services. The property has undergone regular upkeep of common systems, including multiple revisions to bathroom layouts and kitchen facilities, as evidenced by the series of permits issued in 2009. Recent 311 calls indicate occasional maintenance issues, including a resolved Christmas tree removal in 2021 and a blocked sidewalk complaint in 2017, though these were not directly related to the building's condition.
