109 Liberty St, San Francisco, CA 94110

109 Liberty Street is a 5-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1900 and currently owned by Golden Properties LLC. The property has undergone several significant modifications and faced multiple compliance issues in recent years. In 2019, there were attempts to convert the building, with permits filed for adding an ADU studio unit and interior remodeling to enlarge three units, alongside a soft-story retrofit permit, though the ADU permit was withdrawn and the soft-story compliance issues have been recurring.

The building faced multiple building violations in 2016 related to fire safety, window repairs, and weatherproofing, though all were abated by September 2016. More recently, in November 2019, there was an active complaint regarding a broken window with hanging glass, and the building has been involved in various tenant buyout activities, including a payment of $26,630.09 to one tenant in August 2019. The property has undergone several infrastructure improvements over the years, including electrical upgrades in 2004 with a 200-amp service installation and multiple unit renovations, though some older permits show as expired or suspended.

Recent concerns in 2024 have primarily involved general street cleaning issues and waste management around the property, with multiple 311 calls recorded for garbage debris, encampments, and sewage issues. The building's management history shows regular routine apartment inspections, though there have been notable periods of vacancy and illegal unit concerns, particularly around 2016-2019. Current planning records indicate ongoing review for remodeling work with fenestration changes, while previous attempts to merge units or modify the building have been documented, though some actions were marked as informational or under review without clear resolution.
