Initial analysis

The three-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 30 Child Street in Telegraph Hill, owned by the White-Ayoub Family Trust, has undergone several significant modifications and faced multiple regulatory challenges since its construction in 1912. Most notably, in 2015, the property faced active building violations related to an unauthorized expansion of the roof deck, which led to a series of permit applications and modifications between 2015 and 2017, including a completed $30,000 project in 2017 to comply with Notices of Violation (NOV) requirements. This roof deck project was ultimately properly permitted and completed in 2019, with associated plumbing and electrical work for a sink, BBQ, fire pit, and exterior lighting.

The building has a documented history of routine inspections and compliance issues dating back to 1999, including several violations from a 2006 inspection that required corrections to fire safety and gas utility systems, all of which were eventually abated by 2019. Earlier major renovations occurred in the early 2000s, including significant apartment renovations in 2001 involving non-bearing wall modifications and new kitchen installations, though these permits expired. The property received a new roof in 2014, and attempted to address prior violations through various permit applications between 2001 and 2017. A planning application for the roof deck rebuild was submitted and closed in 2019, confirming no change of use or expansion beyond what was permitted. The building has maintained its classification as a Flats & Duplex structure throughout these changes.

Risk rating

How 30 Child 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 684 buildings in this neighborhood, 96 are predicted to be safer.
