80 Palm Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

80 Palm Avenue is a three-story, 10-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1964, currently owned by the George J Okamoto Trust. The building has undergone significant maintenance and safety improvements over the years, including a seismic strengthening project completed in 2015, window replacements in 2020 and most recently in 2023, and multiple fire safety upgrades. The property has demonstrated ongoing commitment to safety improvements, with fire alarm system upgrades completed in 2023 and 2024, and the replacement of 10 Federal Pacific sub-panels in 2016.

The building's soft-story retrofit was completed successfully, achieving Tier 3 compliance with a Certificate of Final Completion issued. Historical records show a series of fire safety improvements were implemented in response to violations noted during a 2003 inspection, including sprinkler head replacement, fire extinguisher maintenance, and egress clearance issues, all of which were abated by 2009. More recent fire safety concerns were addressed promptly, with violations from 2019 (emergency lighting, alarm system maintenance, and door issues) being abated.

The building has experienced some plumbing and electrical system upgrades, including boiler replacements in 2009 and 2013, and various building maintenance projects such as dry rot repair in 2020 and reroofing in 2012. Recent maintenance activity suggests continued attention to building upkeep, with several window replacements and fire safety system upgrades completed within the last three years. The property has had routine inspections over the years, with the most recent involving 311 calls related to home improvement maintenance and parking issues in 2024, though none of these indicate any significant building safety concerns.
