220 Fair Oaks St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The two-story, 8-unit multi-family residential building at 220 Fair Oaks St in Noe Valley has undergone several significant safety upgrades since its 1965 construction. Most notably, the property completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit (Tier 3) in 2017, followed by a fire alarm system upgrade in 2019-2020 that included the installation of new equipment, pull stations, and low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas to comply with current fire safety standards.

The building's history shows attention to both seismic safety and fire prevention, with previous fire damage incidents recorded in 1986 and 1988, though these were successfully repaired. The property has maintained regular fire safety compliance checks, including addressing multiple fire alarm system violations in 2005 and 2010, with all issues marked as resolved.

Recent building maintenance includes window replacements in 2011 and various cleaning and maintenance requests through 311 calls, primarily related to street tree pruning and general sidewalk cleaning between 2020 and 2024. While there have been periodic parking enforcement issues reported through 311 calls, these are not directly related to the building's condition or safety systems. The building's permit history shows consistent investment in maintaining and upgrading essential systems, including a 1998 reroofing project and various other improvements, demonstrating ongoing attention to building maintenance and safety requirements.
