80-82 Macondray Ln, San Francisco, CA 94133

The three-unit apartment building at 80-82 Macondray Lane in Russian Hill, owned by Marion L Starr Fmly Tr, is a three-story structure built in 1937. The building has faced several significant safety and maintenance issues, most notably in late 2014 when violations were recorded regarding the fire escape ladder and a wood retaining wall. The fire escape ladder was found to be improperly lowered onto the neighboring property at 985 Union Street, causing safety concerns and property damage, while the retaining wall was noted to have fallen into the neighboring property, resulting in a $52 monthly monitoring fee violation.

Two building permits were subsequently obtained in October 2014 to address the retaining wall issue, costing $2,000, and the fire escape ladder violation was also addressed by December 2014. The building's maintenance history shows multiple roofing works over the years, with the most recent completed in 2009 at a cost of $11,500. Earlier roofing permits from 1991, 1993, and 1996 exist but are marked as expired.

A plumbing-related complaint from 1998 regarding water issues was documented but resolved by 2000. The property has generated numerous parking enforcement calls in recent years, particularly in 2024, with at least seven reported cases of driveway blocking, though most were unable to be investigated or resolved on-site. Other recent complaints include a sign repair in 2023, a waste removal issue in 2022, and a toter placement problem in 2021, all of which were resolved. No significant fire incidents have been recorded at the property, with only one smoke detector activation noted that was determined to be unintentional.
