165-171 Albion St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The 6-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 165-171 Albion Street in Mission Dolores, owned by Golden Properties LLC, was constructed in 1908 and has undergone several significant renovations to maintain safety and compliance with current building codes. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2018 at a cost of $87,000 to comply with seismic safety requirements.

In 2021, the property experienced multiple maintenance issues that were promptly addressed, including repairs to handrails (both interior and exterior stairwells) and various building systems such as plumbing and electrical components. These issues were documented through multiple building violations and complaints between July and August 2021, all of which were resolved within a short timeframe. The building's maintenance history shows attention to both safety and habitability concerns, with past issues including water damage repairs in 2012, the removal of an unauthorized exterior wooden utility ladder in 2009, and various electrical system upgrades in 2005.

Recent activity at the property has included several 311 calls in 2023-2024 related to general maintenance matters such as garbage and debris, noise complaints, and graffiti, indicating ongoing tenant concerns about building upkeep and neighborhood conditions. There was a brief period of unauthorized commercial activity (referred to as "debasement" comedy events with alcohol service) reported in 2017, which was addressed through proper channels. The building's fire safety history shows typical false alarms and detector activations with no reported injuries, and multiple fire code violations from 2017 that were determined to have "No Merit" by early 2018.
