Initial analysis

The 12-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 1734 Greenwich Street in Cow Hollow, built in 1925, has undergone several significant improvements in recent years, demonstrating ongoing commitment to safety and building modernization. Most recently, in September 2023, the fire alarm system was upgraded to comply with San Francisco Fire Code requirements, following a similar upgrade in June 2023 that included new low-frequency sounders in sleeping areas. The building completed its mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2022 (designated as Tier 3) at a cost of $95,000, enhancing seismic safety. Other major improvements include the installation of fiberglass replacement windows (2013), a new boiler installation (2020), and various fire safety upgrades.

The building has a history of fire safety-related issues, particularly in the early 2000s and 2010s, including multiple fire alarm system upgrades, extinguisher maintenance requirements, and several fire safety complaints, all of which were ultimately resolved. The property experienced some significant maintenance challenges in the early 2000s, including water heater problems, plumbing issues, and various building system deficiencies, but these have been addressed through subsequent repairs and system replacements. Notable historical issues include fire damage repairs in 2002 and foundation repairs in 1992. The building's permit history shows regular maintenance and upgrading of essential systems, including plumbing and electrical infrastructure, with no active violations or complaints currently on record.

Risk rating

How 1734 Greenwich 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Out of 861 buildings in this neighborhood, 766 are predicted to be safer.
