8-10 Palm Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

The property at 8-10 Palm Ave is a 2-story, 4-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1910, currently owned by Joshua David & Stepha Baker. The building underwent significant upgrades in 2016, including the installation of a comprehensive fire safety system with 62 sprinklers (NFPA13), a new monitoring system, and a full electrical upgrade with 300-amp service.

Additional improvements in 2016 encompassed plumbing renovations, including new shower pans, radiant heating system installation, and comprehensive re-plumbing work. The property has experienced some notable issues and concerns over the years, particularly in 2018 when there were complaints about work exceeding permit scope, including the unauthorized removal of an internal stair and concrete work without inspection. Earlier concerns in 2015 involved claims of property line encroachment during excavation work and inadequate shoring.

The building has also undergone various unit renovations, including kitchen reconfigurations in units #1 and #2 and the addition of an office in unit #3 in 2018, though there were subsequent complaints about potential unit merging. A routine housing inspection in 2004 cited multiple fire safety concerns, including smoke detector issues and fire extinguisher maintenance, which were subsequently resolved. The most recent activity at the property includes routine maintenance matters such as temporary moving sign requests and a graffiti issue on the mailbox reported in 2023.
