Initial analysis

The three-unit, two-story multi-family residential building at 2049-2053 Hyde Street in Russian Hill, owned by the Sandra S London 2015 Trust, was constructed in 1911 and has undergone several significant maintenance and safety improvements over the years. The property has a documented history of addressing safety concerns, including a voluntary seismic strengthening project in 2007 that involved installing anchor bolts to secure the building's concrete foundation and sill plate, and compliance with a 2011 notice of violation that required strapping water heaters and repairing back stairs. Multiple routine inspections between 2001 and 2011 revealed various maintenance needs, including stair repairs, handrail replacements, fire safety improvements, and electrical work, all of which have been completed according to the records.

The building's recent history shows regular maintenance attention, with roofing work completed in 2011 and no major structural issues reported in the past decade. While there have been numerous 311 calls in the vicinity since 2021, primarily related to street cleaning and waste management issues, these external matters do not directly affect building safety or maintenance. The most pressing recent concern appears to be a tree-related issue reported in July 2024 regarding potential damage to windows or the building, though this is still listed as an open case. The building's record suggests that major safety concerns have been addressed promptly when identified, with all documented violations being resolved through appropriate repairs and improvements. The most recent building permits indicate that regular maintenance and safety compliance work continues to be prioritized, maintaining the property's overall structural integrity and safety standards.

Risk rating

How 2049-2053 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.
