Initial analysis

The three-story multi-family residential building at 327-331 Hayes Street, owned by Ladan Esfehani Trust, was constructed in 1900 and contains three residential units plus one retail unit. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the past decade, including a substantial retail renovation in 2019 (costing $72,250) that involved multiple system upgrades and finished work, followed by the installation of powered door operators and push buttons. The property has seen recent commercial activity, with Mejuri and Meowtel as notable tenants, with a new illuminated wall sign for Mejuri scheduled for installation in December 2024. Building safety features were addressed in 2014 with the repair and rebuilding of an existing exit stair in the rear yard, which had non-conforming egress conditions.

Recent concerns for the property include multiple complaints about vacant commercial space in early 2023, which remains listed as active under Code Enforcement. There have been several maintenance and environmental issues reported in 2024, including complaints about garbage, debris, and excessive noise, most notably a construction noise complaint filed in August 2024 that is currently not active. The building's façade has been subject to several signage installations and modifications, with the most recent being a projected wall sign for Mejuri. The property has generally maintained compliance with building codes, as evidenced by completed permits for various electrical, plumbing, and structural improvements. The building's recent history shows normal wear and maintenance patterns for a structure of its age, with active management addressing most issues through proper permitting and inspections.

How 327-331 Hayes St's risk score is calculated
