380 26th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94121

The 380 26th Avenue property, a two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1970, is managed by 26th Avenue Apartments LLC and contains 5 units in San Francisco's Central Richmond district. The building has undergone several significant safety and infrastructure improvements over the past decade, most notably completing a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2016 (Tier 3) and a comprehensive fire alarm system upgrade in late 2022/early 2023 which included replacing the fire alarm control panel, smoke detectors, pull stations, and installing new sounders and monitoring modules.

Other major maintenance work has included sewer line and house trap replacement in 2011, water heater modifications in 2008, and the replacement of the fire escape drop ladder in 2003 and 2008. The building has experienced recurring fire safety system maintenance issues, with violations recorded in 2003 and 2008 related to fire escape ladders and alarm systems, though all these violations were eventually abated. A significant resident complaint was filed in November 2019 regarding odor and fumes affecting Unit #1, potentially related to laundry equipment, though this complaint is currently listed as not active.

Recent building maintenance has been focused on fire safety systems, with the most recent fire alarm upgrade being completed in 2023. The property has maintained compliance with city requirements, as evidenced by the issuance of a Certificate of Completion for the soft-story retrofit work, and there are no current active violations on record. The building's recent history shows regular attention to safety and infrastructure upgrades, particularly in the areas of seismic retrofitting and fire safety systems.
