170 Albion St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The 8-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 170 Albion Street in Mission Dolores, owned by the Lincoln R Shaw 1995 Revocable Trust, was constructed in 1925 and has undergone several significant safety and maintenance improvements over recent years. Most notably, the building completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 at a cost of $84,000, demonstrating compliance with seismic safety requirements.

Recent upgrades include a comprehensive fire safety system improvement in 2021, with the installation of new sounders, detectors, and other fire safety equipment to meet current code requirements. The building has received consistent attention to its mechanical systems, with three separate boiler replacements between 2014-2020 and water heater upgrades in 2020, though there were occasional issues with permit compliance that have since been addressed. The property has experienced periodic maintenance and safety concerns over the years, including violations in 2015 related to combustible storage, weatherproofing, and lead paint concerns, all of which were abated.

There have been recurring issues with garbage management, as evidenced by multiple 311 calls and complaints about insufficient receptacles, most recently in early 2024. The building's history includes regular safety inspections and routine maintenance, with the most recent fire safety incident recorded being a carbon monoxide situation with no civilian injuries, though the date appears to be unspecified in the records. The property has generally demonstrated an ongoing commitment to addressing safety and maintenance requirements, as evidenced by the completion of multiple major systems upgrades and prompt response to violations when they occur.
