270 27th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The 6-unit, 3-story apartment building at 270 27th Ave, owned by Thl Holdings Llc, was constructed in 1958 and has undergone several significant safety and maintenance upgrades over the years. Most notably, in 2019 the building completed a $75,000 structural upgrade to comply with the soft-story ordinance, achieving Tier 4 status with work now marked as complete and a Certificate of Final Completion (CFC) issued.

The building has experienced recurring fire safety issues, with the most recent incident in February 2023 involving a malfunctioning alarm system that was promptly corrected. A concerning pattern of fire safety violations was documented in July 2003, including problems with smoke enclosure doors, fire escape ladders, and combustible storage, though these were all abated by August 2003. In October 2018, there was a serious complaint about inadequate fire alarm systems, with reports of residents having to disable malfunctioning alarms, but this issue was subsequently addressed by Courmale & Co.

The building has undergone several major maintenance projects, including reroofing in 2005 and electrical system upgrades, though a 2003 permit to change the fusebox was cancelled. Recent activity includes two street space permits filed in 2020, and a complaint about construction work and unpermitted activity in December 2020, though this was ultimately marked as not active. The building's maintenance history shows a pattern of addressing violations and undertaking required upgrades, with the most recent work focusing on general safety and compliance matters.
