Initial analysis

The five-story, 30-unit apartment building at 345 Jones St, built in 1912 and currently owned by Warrior Rooster LLC, has undergone several significant safety system upgrades in recent years. Most notably, in 2023, the building received updates to its fire alarm system to comply with San Francisco Fire Code requirements, including the installation of low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas and an upgraded fire panel. A comparable fire safety improvement was completed in 2008 with the addition of five fire sprinkler heads in the garbage room across all floors. The building has experienced recurring elevator issues, with multiple complaints about non-functioning elevators, the most recent violation issued in November 2024.

Historical maintenance issues have included various concerns between 2002-2008 such as water damage, electrical problems, and general maintenance deficiencies, though most of these were resolved. There have been persistent concerns regarding building systems and safety equipment, as evidenced by multiple fire safety violations and complaints in 2023-2024 related to alarm systems, extinguishers, and exits. Recent fire incidents have been primarily related to non-threatening situations such as false alarms and system tests, with no reported civilian injuries. The building has maintained active engagement with fire safety requirements, evidenced by recent substantial investments in safety system upgrades, though there have been periodic lapses requiring citations and subsequent corrections.

Risk rating

How 345 Jones 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.
