57 High St, San Francisco, CA 94114

The three-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 57 High Street in Noe Valley, owned by William Tam, was constructed in 1977 and has undergone several significant improvements over the years. Major renovations occurred in 2005, including a substantial $45,000 remodel of the kitchen, bathroom, and living room, accompanied by electrical upgrades.

The building has received proper maintenance attention, including window upgrades in 2014 and a reroofing project completed in 2006 costing $8,100. A routine housing inspection was conducted between 2003 and 2009, with no active violations noted. The property has experienced some safety-related concerns, particularly in 2014 when multiple complaints were filed regarding blocked exits, though these were promptly referred to the Department of Building Inspection.

Earlier in 2006, there was one unspecified complaint that resulted in a violation being issued. The building has also faced three fire code violation citations related to construction without proper permits between September 2005 and January 2006, though these have since been closed. More recently, there have been several street-level quality of life issues reported via 311 calls in 2023-2024, including graffiti, abandoned vehicles, and sidewalk cleaning needs, though these are primarily external to the building itself.
