120 Graystone Ter, San Francisco, CA 94114

120 Graystone Terrace, a 3-story, 9-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1951, is currently experiencing several significant concerns that impact resident safety and compliance. The property, owned by Ramona M Albright Fmly Tr, is classified as Tier 3 in the Mandatory Soft Story Retrofit Program and has been cited for non-compliance, with an active violation filed in October 2022 regarding failure to complete required retrofit work and obtain final signoff. While the building underwent substantial improvements in 2021, including kitchen and bathroom renovations ($360,000) across all units, a 400-amp service upgrade, and individual unit rewiring (Units 1-9), the failure to complete the mandatory soft story retrofit remains a pressing issue.

The building has had recent violations related to fire safety equipment, including a fire escape violation in 2018, though this was officially abated. Historical maintenance records show attention to structural integrity, with work completed in 2009 addressing rotted stucco and deck issues. The property has undergone two roof replacements, one in 1990 and another in 1991.

Recent 311 calls from 2022-2024 primarily relate to external issues such as parking violations, street cleaning, and graffiti, rather than building-specific concerns. While the building has been significantly upgraded in recent years, the outstanding soft story retrofit requirement represents a major compliance gap that affects the building's seismic safety certification, according to San Francisco Building Code requirements. The property has also experienced periodic fire safety equipment inspections and subsequent violations, with varying degrees of resolution.
