Initial analysis

The property at 1216-1218 Stockton Street is a three-story, multi-family residential building with ground-floor retail space, constructed in 1906 and currently owned by the Kevin Wong Revocable Trust. Recent years have seen significant activity regarding building maintenance and compliance, particularly around awning installations. In January 2023, a complaint was filed regarding unpermitted awning installations at the Fruit Garden supermarket, which led to the building owner participating in the Awning Amnesty Program in 2024, with two awnings (15'4"x6' and 48'x4'x5') receiving proper authorization. The building underwent substantial electrical and plumbing work in 2007, including installations of lighting, switches, receptacles, heaters, and smoke alarms, with permits showing proper completion of these improvements.

The building's maintenance history shows some concerning recent issues, including a sewage backup incident in September 2024 and multiple garbage/debris complaints between March and December 2024. Historical records from 2005-2006 indicate past fire safety concerns with multiple violations noted, including issues with fire alarms, sprinklers, and exit corridors, though all were marked as corrected. There are also several documented street space permits issued between 2007 and 2008, and various 311 calls regarding general cleaning and maintenance issues in the surrounding area. A pavement defect complaint from January 2024 remains open as of the latest records. The property has maintained regular communication with city agencies regarding its compliance requirements, as evidenced by multiple permit renewals and cancellation/withdrawal records in 2024.

Risk rating

How 1216-1218 Stockton 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
