Most recently, in 2023-2024, there were multiple issues with garbage collection and debris management on the property, with Recology responding to numerous reports of overflowing city garbage cans. There are three active 311 calls from January 2025 regarding garbage issues. The building's boiler system has been a recurring concern, with the most recent complaint in March 2024 about an expired permit for the Raypak domestic hot water boiler installed in 2013, following a similar issue in 2010.

The property has experienced various fire safety-related incidents and violations, particularly between 2018-2019, when issues were documented regarding fire escapes, sprinkler systems, alarm systems, and fire extinguishers, all of which were subsequently corrected or abated. The building has a documented history of false alarms and system malfunctions, though no significant fires or civilian injuries have been reported.

The property underwent a vertical addition to add a roof deck in 1998, and various window improvements were attempted in 2007-2008.

Risk rating

How 2295 Broadway'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.
