Initial analysis

The seven-story, 13-unit apartment building at 2790 Green Street in Cow Hollow, owned by the Government of the Russian Federation, was constructed in 1923 and has undergone several significant maintenance and compliance events over its history. The most recent major building systems maintenance includes a backflow device replacement completed in 2011, while a reroofing project valued at $90,000 was initiated in 2000. The building has experienced two unauthorized construction incidents, including unpermitted roof electronic installations in 2008 and unauthorized renovation work above the garage in 2005, though these issues were promptly addressed within a week of discovery. A fire safety inspection in 2011 noted blocked exits, but this condition was corrected the same day.

The property has faced numerous parking and vehicular access challenges in recent years, particularly in 2023-2024, with multiple reports of blocked driveways and abandoned vehicles, though these were generally resolved promptly through enforcement action. The building's exterior maintenance has been a focus, with the Department of Public Works responding to multiple tree-related issues in 2023-2024, including concerns about a damaged tree (resolved) and overgrown vegetation (pruning request issued). While the building's systems and structure appear to have received regular attention, with various permits for roofing and equipment upgrades over the years, the pattern of unpermitted work in 2005 and 2008 suggests some historical challenges with proper construction authorization procedures.

Risk rating

How 2790 Green 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.
