108-118 Albion St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The 6-unit, 3-story, multi-family residential building at 108-118 Albion Street in Mission Dolores, built in 1906, has undergone substantial renovations and faced several significant issues in recent years. Most notably, the building completed a required Tier 3 soft-story retrofit, and in 2020-2021, it added two accessory dwelling units in the garage area while making $250,000 interior improvements to four units including kitchens, bathrooms, closets, and laundry rooms.

The property has experienced multiple building code violations and safety concerns, particularly between 2018-2022, including issues with smoke detectors, heating systems, window replacements, and unauthorized construction work. Recently, three fire safety violations were issued between September-December 2023, specifically related to alarm systems, sprinkler systems, and sleeping area requirements.

The building underwent extensive mechanical upgrades in 2021-2022, including complete window replacements, water heater installations, and electrical system improvements, though some of this work faced complaints about exceeding permit scope. Recent 311 calls from 2024-2025 have primarily concerned exterior issues like graffiti and debris, as well as recent electrical concerns. The building has also seen several tenant buyouts between 2021-2022, with payouts ranging from $25,000 to $115,000 for units 108, 110, 112, 116, and 118.
