106 18th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The 5-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 106 18th Avenue, owned by Stammi Investments LLC, has undergone significant safety improvements since its construction in 1915. Most notably, the building completed mandatory soft-story retrofitting in 2014 at a cost of $50,000, achieving compliance with San Francisco Building Code requirements. Recent fire safety upgrades include a $27,350 fire alarm system enhancement completed in 2023 to meet current fire code requirements, including the installation of low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas and updating all devices to be compatible with the new fire alarm control panel.

The property has also addressed essential infrastructure maintenance, including sewer line replacement and house trap work in 2014, and a Ufer ground installation in 2014 to improve electrical safety. The building's maintenance history shows proactive responses to both routine inspections and specific issues, such as a broken sewage pipe incident in 2014 and various routine inspections dating back to 1996. While there were several building violations documented in 2002 related to fire safety, lead paint hazards, and security issues, these were all abated by October 2002.

Recent fire alarm complaints in late 2024 were found to have "No Merit," and the building's fire incident history primarily consists of false alarms and system malfunctions, with no recorded civilian injuries. The property is currently classified as a Tier 3 Soft Story building with completed work and a Certificate of Final Completion issued. Recent 311 calls have primarily concerned external issues like tree damage, abandoned vehicles, and street cleaning matters rather than building-specific concerns.
