1231 8th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The property at 1231 8th Ave in the Inner Sunset is a two-story, multi-family residential building constructed in 1959, containing 4 residential units and currently owned by 12318thave LLC. The building suffered significant fire damage in April 2005 when a neighboring building caught fire, resulting in extensive repairs throughout 2005-2006 including structural damage to walls, stairs, and water damage repairs.

The renovation work, completed between 2005-2006, included kitchen and living room modifications in all four units, installation of new beams, appliances, washer/dryer units, and electrical updates, along with the addition of a 1-hour firewall in common areas. More recent history shows the building has undergone several routine housing inspections between 1999-2010, all of which were completed without noted ongoing concerns. The property's maintenance record from 2021 to the present shows multiple reports of sidewalk cleaning needs, including instances of human/animal waste in 2022 and various garbage/debris issues throughout 2024.

The most recent building permit activity was in 2010 for street space and sidewalk work. While the fire incident and subsequent repairs in 2005-2006 represent the most significant event in the building's recent history, there have been no major structural or safety concerns reported in the past decade, with most recent issues relating to street maintenance rather than building conditions. The property has required regular maintenance of overgrown trees in 2021, as addressed by the city's StreetTreeSF program.
