166-168 Albion St, San Francisco, CA 94110

This 3-story, 2-unit multi-family residential building located at 166-168 Albion St in Mission Dolores was built in 1925 and is currently owned by the Edward & Lori Scher Family Trust. The building has undergone several significant renovations and faced various compliance issues over the years. Most recently, in 2022, a $15,000 re-roofing project was completed.

In 2021, the property underwent important safety improvements including the installation of gas shut-offs, water heater protections, and safety devices across both units, following a physical inspection report. The building previously experienced notable compliance issues in 2011-2018, with multiple violations related to unauthorized remodeling work, electrical and plumbing installations without proper permits, and concerns about rear egress stairs safety. These violations were eventually resolved through various completed permits. Earlier renovation work includes kitchen and bathroom remodels completed in 2018, and significant electrical and plumbing updates in 2012-2014, including the installation of numerous fixtures and safety systems throughout both units.

The property has faced several neighborhood concerns over the years, including potential unauthorized dwelling unit alterations and construction work being performed without proper permits. Recent years (2022-2023) have shown increased reports of street maintenance issues around the property, with multiple calls regarding waste removal and general cleaning needs, though these are primarily exterior to the building itself. A notable fire incident was recorded as a false alarm with no civilian injuries. The building's records also show a history of responsive permit renewals and completion of various construction-related work, suggesting ongoing maintenance and compliance efforts by the current ownership.
