Initial analysis

The 6-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 1746-1756 Hyde Street, owned by Felicia Kwong 2019 Tr, was constructed in 1907 in the Russian Hill neighborhood. The building has undergone several significant safety-related improvements, most notably a mandatory soft-story retrofit completed under Tier 3 requirements with Certificate of Final Completion (CFC) issued, which aligns with San Francisco's seismic safety mandates. This retrofit process, which began in 2017 with an $80,000 permit, experienced multiple delays and compliance issues, resulting in violations and additional permits totaling $40,000 in 2022 to finalize the work. The building's safety features include a wet fire sprinkler system for storage areas installed in 1985.

Several resident complaints between 2016 and 2022 highlight ongoing maintenance and safety concerns. These included a 2020 incident with blocked fire egress windows and breezeways, insect infestations, and concerns about lead paint hazards. Historical violations from 2000 documented issues with gas utility shutoff tools, gas meter instructions, and stair repairs, all of which were eventually abated. The property has experienced various maintenance issues over the years, including peeling paint (2016), construction work disputes (2022), and sidewalk obstruction (2018). Recent municipal responses to 311 calls indicate ongoing maintenance attention, with the most recent being a reported garbage issue in December 2024. The building's condition and compliance history suggests a property requiring regular oversight to maintain safety standards, though recent completion of the soft-story retrofit program demonstrates progress in addressing critical safety requirements.

Risk rating

How 1746-1756 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.
