Initial analysis

The three-story, seven-unit apartment building at 816-824 Greenwich Street in Russian Hill, owned by Foppiano Angelo & Ann M Rev, has undergone several significant improvements since its construction in 1907. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2018 at a cost of $90,000, achieving Tier 3 compliance with the San Francisco Building Code requirements. Recent maintenance work includes sewer repairs completed in 2021, and the building has a history of regular upkeep such as a complete reroofing in 2011 and a unit renovation in 2017 (Unit 818A) that included kitchen and bathroom remodeling, electrical rewiring, and new fixtures totaling $55,000.

In mid-2022, the building experienced a cluster of serious issues that were documented in multiple building violations, including problems with electrical systems, plumbing, heating, mold, and the presence of lead hazards, though these were all abated by August 2022. The building's maintenance history shows regular attention to infrastructure, including emergency fire panel repairs in 2006 and various building code compliance matters. Historical complaints show some recurring issues such as garbage bin placement (2012) and entrance security (2018), while multiple routine housing inspections have been conducted since 1999, suggesting regular oversight of building conditions. Recent 311 calls (2022-2023) primarily relate to street cleaning and garbage management, indicating ongoing concerns about waste management in the immediate vicinity of the building though these are not direct reflections on building maintenance or habitability.

Risk rating

How 816-824 Greenwich 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.
