Initial analysis

The three-story, 9-unit multi-family residential building at 15 San Antonio Place in Telegraph Hill, owned by John Parodi, was constructed in 1975 and has undergone several significant safety and maintenance improvements over the years. The property completed mandatory soft-story seismic retrofitting in 2017 (at a cost of $54,000) and has had multiple roofing projects, including a $22,600 reroofing completed in 2022. Recent safety concerns have been addressed, including violations related to fire escape maintenance and emergency systems in 2022-2023, all of which were resolved through proper corrective actions. The building experienced recurring issues with rooftop access and fire escape blocking in units 201/202 during 2021-2022, though these complaints have been marked as not active. A comprehensive set of safety compliance violations was recorded in June 2022 regarding smoke alarms, utility shutoff tools, and fire escape ladders, all of which were abated by September 2022. The most recent concern involves multiple noise complaints filed between November and December 2024, which remain open as of now.

The property has maintained active compliance with major safety requirements, including the completion of the Tier 3 soft-story retrofit program, and has addressed all historical violations through appropriate remediations. Earlier maintenance work includes repairs to a retaining wall in 2007 ($9,000), earlier reroofing projects (2013, 2003), and attempts to address wood shingle siding issues in 2000. The building has undergone routine inspections over the years, with most historical violations being resolved promptly. The fire escape system has been a recurring area of focus, with violations noted in both 2021 and 2022 relating to access and maintenance, though these were subsequently resolved.

Risk rating

How 15 San Antonio Pl'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
9th percentile

Out of 684 buildings in this neighborhood, 622 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 61.3%
Moderate concern 25.1%
Severe concern 13.6%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
