Initial analysis

The 180-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 260 Bay Street, owned by NP Apartments LLC and built in 1968, has undergone significant renovation work over the past two years. The property has seen consistent modernization efforts, particularly in 2023-2024, with multiple units receiving kitchen and bathroom upgrades including cabinet replacements, fixture updates, and complete remodels in phases across units 1451, 1502, 2451, 2503, 3453, and others, totaling approximately $1 million in improvements. A roofing project was also commenced in June 2023, though its status as "Issued" suggests work is pending.

Recent tenant concerns have centered around elevator functionality, with a January 2024 complaint indicating persistent issues affecting both 265 North Point Street and the adjacent Powell Street building, impacting residents' floor selection capabilities. The building's maintenance history reveals several notable incidents from 2017 and earlier, including multiple hoarding and maintenance violations that were eventually resolved. There is an active sleeping area violation from October 2023 that remains unaddressed as of the latest records. The property has experienced numerous fire alarm activations over the years, though these have generally been either false alarms or non-fire related activations, with no reported civilian injuries. Additionally, recent 311 calls from January 2025 indicate multiple open issues regarding shared spaces outside the building, including concerns about pathways, fire hydrants, and sound levels, though these relate to exterior rather than interior conditions.

Risk rating

How 260 Bay St's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of SF DBI inspection data — notice of violation filings, complaint history, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that DBI inspectors will issue a Notice of Violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Grade A–B — Low risk

DBI rarely finds violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. DBI has found issues here before and is statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
38th percentile

Out of 8 buildings in this neighborhood, 5 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 6.0%
Moderate concern 86.2%
Severe concern 7.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
