Initial analysis

The 12-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 2590 Greenwich Street in Cow Hollow, owned by Hui Family Trust 2014, has undergone several significant safety improvements since its construction in 1955. Most notably, the building completed required soft-story seismic upgrades between 2015-2016, including the installation of steel moment frames at the front and side of the building. The property has maintained active fire safety compliance, with recent fire alarm system upgrades in 2021 (costing $10,000) and the installation of new notification devices to meet San Francisco Fire Code requirements. Three fire-related complaints were filed in 2021-2022 regarding alarm systems and blocked exits, though all were noted as "Condition Corrected."

The building experienced multiple violations in 2003-2005 related to various maintenance issues, including heating system requirements and fire safety concerns, all of which were abated by February 2010. Major maintenance work has included window replacements throughout the building (79 windows in 2005, and additional windows in 2010), reroofing in 2007, and various electrical upgrades including garage circuit installations in 2017. The property has maintained a record of routine housing inspections, with the most recent regular inspections showing active management of identified issues. While there have been several 311 calls regarding the property, primarily related to external issues like graffiti and sidewalk maintenance, these have generally been resolved promptly. A single carbon monoxide detector activation was reported with no CO found, and there have been no recorded fire incidents resulting in civilian injuries.

Risk rating

How 2590 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
14th percentile

Out of 861 buildings in this neighborhood, 740 are predicted to be safer.

Model explanation

What's driving this score

The three data points that most influenced this building's risk rating — ranked by the weight the model placed on each one.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

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 37.2%
Moderate concern 43.6%
Severe concern 19.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
