Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 678-680 Greenwich St in North Beach is a 2-story flats and duplex structure built in 1906 and currently owned by Mary McSweeney Morris. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past decades, with the most recent work being a window replacement project in November 2024, costing $5,685, and a reroofing project completed in 2022 at a cost of $18,880. Prior improvements include a substantial window replacement in 2016, where nine street-visible windows were upgraded to meet energy efficiency standards, and a comprehensive kitchen renovation in both units and the garage completed in 1996. Historical records show an earlier reroofing project from 1988, though two satellite antenna installation permits from 1985 were cancelled.

The building has experienced recurring issues with driveway access, particularly in recent years, with six documented incidents of vehicles blocking driveways between 2021 and 2023, resulting in at least three citations being issued. There have also been multiple reports of street cleaning needs, including abandoned furniture and general garbage, with the most recent cleaning request being resolved in October 2024. The property appears to be actively maintained, with regular updates to windows and roofing systems, though the recurring parking issues suggest ongoing challenges with local enforcement of parking regulations. The building's maintenance record shows consistent attention to basic infrastructure, with no reported health or safety violations in the available data.

Risk rating

How 678-680 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.

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
93th percentile

Out of 362 buildings in this neighborhood, 25 are predicted to be safer.
