818-822 Stanyan St, San Francisco, CA 94117

The 6-unit apartment building at 818-822 Stanyan Street, owned by Bob & Leslie Chan 2001 Family, is a three-story multi-family residential structure built in 1904. The building has undergone several significant safety improvements over the years, most notably completing a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2015 at a cost of $55,000, achieving Tier 3 compliance with a Certificate of Final Completion issued. Historical records show attention to structural and safety issues, including a comprehensive dry rot repair in 1988 and various wall modifications in the 1980s.

The property has experienced multiple safety-related incidents and violations, particularly in a cluster of issues identified in 2006 and 2011. These incidents included fire safety concerns such as a malfunctioning central alarm system, fire escape maintenance issues, and fire extinguisher concerns, all of which were subsequently resolved by 2011. A routine inspection in 2011 also revealed various maintenance needs including window repairs, ceiling repairs, and handrail maintenance, all of which were addressed.

There was a notable electrical wiring issue reported in 1999 involving lights malfunctioning and a fire alarm activation, which was resolved by 2000. More recently, the building has experienced periodic parking enforcement issues along Stanyan Street, with multiple calls regarding blocking driveways between August 2024 and January 2025, though these are external rather than internal building issues. The most recent building-related concerns have been minor, with no significant violations or safety issues reported in recent years, and routine maintenance seems to be kept up to date.
