AI summary

The three-story, 7-unit multi-family residential building at 425 Greenwich Street in Telegraph Hill, owned by Dennis J. and Eileen Aicardi, was constructed in 1961 and has undergone several significant improvements over its lifetime. Most notably, the building completed a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 at a cost of $55,000, bringing it into compliance with San Francisco's seismic safety requirements. Earlier maintenance work included a 1999 project to address stucco replacement, roofing work, and dry rot repairs on the rear wall, though this permit was listed as expired. The building has maintained a consistent record of routine housing inspections by Housing Inspection Services in 2000, 2003, and 2006, with all issues being promptly resolved. Historical complaints from the 1990s included concerns about stairway handrails and an elevator accessibility issue, both of which were addressed and abated.

Recent history from 2022 to 2024 shows various municipal service requests, primarily related to scooter and bicycle parking issues, with most being resolved or closed after investigation. There have been two recent environmental health-related cases in late 2023 and October 2024, with one being transferred to the San Francisco Department of Public Health's Healthy Housing Inspection Program. A graffiti complaint from January 2023 was noted to be impacted by temporary enforcement changes during the COVID pandemic. The building's infrastructure improvements and responsive management to historical and recent complaints suggest active maintenance, though the presence of recent environmental health complaints warrants monitoring. The building's completion of the soft-story retrofit program demonstrates compliance with key earthquake safety requirements, and it is important to note that the $55,000 investment in seismic improvements was funded under a special program designed to mitigate that kind of hazard for this particular building.

Risk rating

How 425 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

Out of 684 buildings in this neighborhood, 499 are predicted to be safer.
