Initial analysis

The 19-unit, 6-story multi-family residential building at 1816 Eddy Street, constructed in 2014 by Long Prosperity LLC, has undergone significant safety infrastructure development since its completion. The building received comprehensive fire safety upgrades during construction, including a new fire alarm system ($60,000), fire sprinkler and standpipe system ($140,000), and two-way communication system ($10,000). More recent building maintenance includes the installation of a new hot water boiler in 2020, with previous boiler systems installed in 2014 and 2016. The building has experienced several technical issues, with notable concerns including a locked egress staircase incident in November 2019 where a resident was temporarily trapped in the basement, and repeated elevator outages in 2017. Recent fire safety inspections have shown some compliance issues, including a December 2023 violation regarding sleeping area requirements, though many earlier violations from 2022-2023 related to sprinkler systems, alarm systems, and hood/deduct service were corrected. The building's fire alarm system has experienced numerous false alarms, though no actual fires have been recorded, with the most recent incidents being unintentional alarm activations. There have been multiple parking-related complaints in the surrounding area, particularly regarding driveway blocking, though these issues are external to the building itself.

Risk rating

How 1816 Eddy 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
