Augrented Insights Report

The three-story multi-family residential building at 151-153 Russ Street in San Francisco's South of Market neighborhood, owned by Andrew Tam, was constructed in 1911. The property underwent significant improvements between 2007-2009, including multiple unit renovations featuring kitchen and bathroom remodels, installation of new plumbing fixtures, and updates to electrical systems with new sub-panels and circuits throughout.

A notable recent development is the planned addition of an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) on the first floor, for which permits were filed in November 2018 with an estimated cost of $150,000, including fire sprinkler installation. The building's maintenance record shows regular updates to essential systems, including the installation of a tankless water heater, replacement of a furnace, and extensive electrical work in preparation for improvements.

A complaint was filed in January 2018 regarding construction noise and lack of proper permits/postings during work hours, though this is now marked as not active. The property has experienced several infrastructure-related issues in the surrounding area, with multiple 311 calls in 2024 regarding street cleaning, waste removal, and a fallen tree reported as "in progress." While there was one fire complaint in 2015 regarding combustible materials, it was determined to have no merit. Recent activity primarily involves public space maintenance issues rather than building-specific problems, suggesting that the property has been well-maintained in terms of structural and systems upkeep.
