Initial analysis

The three-story mixed-use building at 2112-2116 Union Street, owned by Christine A Bianchi, was constructed in 1900 and contains three residential units with ground-floor retail space. The property has undergone several significant changes over the past decade, most notably the 2021 conversion of retail space to instructional services. Recent improvements include a 2022 fire alarm system violation (subsequently abated), and a series of maintenance and upgrade projects between 2014-2019 including roof replacement, tenant improvements, and electrical system upgrades. The building experienced multiple serious issues in 2002, including structural concerns with a wall lacking proper foundation, dry rot, and pest damage, along with various building code violations related to security, fire safety, and smoke detection, though these were all abated by September 2003.

Recent maintenance records from 2024 show recurring issues with city garbage cans overflowing and sidewalk maintenance needs. The building's systems have been regularly upgraded, with completed projects including water heater relocation (2010), electrical panel upgrades (2004), and various tenant improvements in 2014 including new lighting, restrooms, and flooring. The property has had two notable fire alarm system incidents in late 2022, though there were no civilian injuries reported. The building's recent history shows consistent maintenance and upgrading of systems, though there are ongoing concerns with external sanitation and waste management as evidenced by multiple 311 calls throughout 2024.

Risk rating

How 2112-2116 Union 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, 560 are predicted to be safer.

Apartment building — this property classification influences expected violation rates.

Building age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 56.1%
Moderate concern 31.1%
Severe concern 12.8%
