Initial analysis

1450 Lyon Street is a three-unit multi-family residential building located in the Lower Pacific Heights neighborhood, constructed in 1962 and owned by Percy O. and Albertine Green. The building's maintenance history includes several significant events, with the most notable being a fire incident in 1986 that gutted Apartment #3. In 2003-2004, the building underwent various improvements including a reroofing project costing $5,200, while a permit for vinyl siding installation on the back wall was issued but ultimately expired. The property faced serious safety-related violations in mid-2003, requiring immediate attention to fire safety systems including smoke detectors, fire extinguishers, and a fire escape ladder, all of which were successfully abated by September 2003. Since then, the building has undergone routine safety inspections in 2008 and 2012, with no major violations recorded.

The recent history of the property shows external challenges primarily related to street and sidewalk maintenance, with multiple 311 calls in 2023-2024 concerning garbage, debris, and waste in the vicinity. These issues have generally been promptly addressed by city services. A current open concern as of January 2025 involves an overgrown tree blocking the sidewalk. The most recent documented internal incident relates to a 510-person distress call, though no injuries were reported in connection with this event.

Risk rating

How 1450 Lyon 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
