Initial analysis

The three-story multi-family residential building at 2319-2323 Hyde Street in Russian Hill, owned by John Sperling 1994 Irrevocable Trust, was constructed in 1900 and currently contains no registered units. The property has undergone several significant safety-related modifications over the past two decades, with the most recent being a completed gas houseline extension in September 2023. In 2012, the building underwent fire compliance work including window infill and door replacements, following a building complaint regarding non-fire rated property line doors and windows, as well as ventilation encroachments. The building's fire safety systems have required attention, with violations noted for fire extinguishers and alarm systems in July 2017, though these were subsequently abated. A series of fire-related incidents between 2015 and 2017, all of which were either false alarms or system activations with no injuries, suggest ongoing fire safety system challenges.

The property has experienced consistent waste management issues recently, with ten reports of overflowing city garbage cans between late 2024 and early 2025, though these were street-level issues rather than building-related problems. Historical permit records show various construction and modification projects, including a completed fire escape addition in 2006 (though initially listed as not required), and multiple permit revisions between 2000-2001. The building's documented history indicates regular attention to fire safety requirements, though with some patterns of system-related incidents that have required ongoing maintenance and compliance work.

Risk rating

How 2319-2323 Hyde 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

Out of 1133 buildings in this neighborhood, 419 are predicted to be safer.
