784-788 Dolores St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The 5-unit, 2-story multi-family residential building at 784-788 Dolores Street, constructed in 1900, has undergone several significant improvements and faced various compliance challenges over the years. Most notably, the building completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2018 at a cost of $68,000, following two code violations issued in 2014 and 2017 for failure to comply with San Francisco's earthquake safety requirements.

The building received its Certificate of Final Completion (CFC) for the soft-story work, which was classified under Tier 3 with work designated as complete. The property has a history of addressing structural maintenance issues, including a dry rot repair of back stairs in 1996 and a window upgrade from wood to aluminum in 1985. Other improvements included reroofing in 1996 and the installation of a 100-amp underground electrical service in 2003.

The building has undergone routine housing inspections in 2002 and 2006, with all issues resolved. Recent external concerns documented through 311 calls primarily involved sidewalk maintenance and graffiti issues in 2022, along with a pavement defect in 2023. While these exterior maintenance matters were addressed, they represent the building's most recent documented challenges.
