Initial analysis

The property at 58-60 Morrell Place in Nob Hill is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1955, currently owned by Joerg Wittenberg. The building's maintenance record shows limited documented interior improvements, with only one electrical permit application on record from 2007 for a motor operator installation, though this permit was ultimately canceled.

The most significant and recent activity related to this property concerns repeated street cleaning and maintenance issues between late 2023 and 2025, with the area experiencing multiple incidents of garbage and debris accumulation requiring city intervention. Between November 2023 and January 2025, there were at least ten documented cases of garbage, debris, or yard waste on or near the property requiring attention from city services, with most cases being resolved relatively quickly through normal cleaning processes. Additionally, there were two instances of graffiti on public structures near the property in late 2023 and September 2024, both of which were addressed by city crews through painting. While these external maintenance issues suggest some ongoing challenges with waste management in the immediate vicinity, it's important to note that the majority of these incidents were resolved promptly through standard city service interventions.

Risk rating

How 58-60 Morrell 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
