672-674 Hampshire St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The three-story multi-family residential building at 672-674 Hampshire Street in the Inner Mission, owned by Albert Brett, was constructed in 1900 and contains three units. The property has undergone several significant repairs and improvements throughout its history, with the most substantial work occurring in 1990 when multiple repairs were completed, including addressing dry rot issues in various parts of the building (rear house, second-floor ceiling, and wooden steps), reroofing, and replacing damaged siding on the rear of the house. Earlier improvements from 1984 included the installation of aluminum windows and three new entry doors.

The building has faced multiple safety and security violations over the years, with notable issues documented during a 2003 routine inspection including problems with handrails, self-closing devices at exterior doors, security locks, and gas meter instructions. These violations were all abated by November 2003. A subsequent routine inspection in 2010 identified issues with fire extinguisher maintenance that were also promptly addressed.

More recently, there have been persistent noise-related complaints, particularly between 2022 and 2023, with multiple reports of excessive noise. A sewer issue was reported in May 2024, and there have been occasional problems with defaced parking signs, though these are generally not related to building conditions. The most recent documented fire incident was a non-injury service call, and there are no active violations or complaints on record as of the latest data available. While the building appears to have addressed most of its historical maintenance and safety issues, the frequency of noise complaints in recent years may be a relevant consideration for current residents.
