Initial analysis

The 9-unit, 3-story apartment building at 2601 Greenwich Street in Cow Hollow, owned by Peter H Flood Trustee, has undergone several significant improvements since its 1926 construction. Most notably, in August 2024, the building completed a mandatory electrical panel replacement project for all units due to insurance requirements, including conversion of the main fuse box to a breaker system. The building has a history of systematic unit improvements, including multiple kitchen remodels (completed in Units 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, and 9 between 2007-2014) and a soft-story retrofit completed in 2010-2011 with associated dry rot repairs. Mechanical systems have been maintained, with recent installations including a domestic hot water boiler replacement in 2016 and a steam boiler replacement in 2013.

The building has experienced recurring fire safety compliance issues, particularly with fire alarm systems and fire extinguishers, as evidenced by multiple fire complaints between 2018 and 2024. Recent violations from June 2024 regarding fire extinguishers were issued but subsequently abated by August 2024. Historical building violations from 2011 included problems with the central alarm system, fire extinguishers, stairs, and fire proofing materials, all of which were abated by March 2011. The building has maintained regular unit improvements over the years, including extensive plumbing work, kitchen upgrades, and the installation of new safety systems. While there have been periodic fire safety concerns, most violations have been addressed promptly, and the recent electrical upgrades indicate ongoing investment in building maintenance and safety compliance.

Risk rating

How 2601 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
