116-120 Steiner St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The three-story multi-family residential building at 116-120 Steiner Street, owned by Gordon Pedersen, was constructed in 1900 and contains 6 units. The property has undergone several significant structural improvements over the past decade, most notably a completed soft-story retrofit in 2017 (tier 3) at a cost of $48,000, and a foundation replacement project in 2015 that included new concrete work and plywood sheathing for $90,000. Other notable structural work includes rear stair repairs in 2009 and multiple street space permits issued in 2019 and 2020.

Historically, the building experienced a cluster of violations in 2002 related to safety issues, including problems with stairs, fire escape obstructions, and smoke detector requirements - all of which were abated by June 2003. More recent tenant complaints include a 2020 report of excessive noise from construction work and a 2009 incident involving water damage from an upper unit. The property has maintained active compliance with building safety requirements, including the mandatory soft-story retrofit program.

The building's exterior and surrounding area have generated recent maintenance calls, particularly in late 2024, regarding sidewalk graffiti, debris, and parking concerns. While these issues are being addressed through city channels, they primarily relate to external maintenance rather than building safety or habitability. The property has shown a consistent pattern of addressing both structural improvements and maintenance issues, with no active violations currently on record.
