Initial analysis

The three-story multi-family residential building at 810-816 Central Avenue in the Park North neighborhood was constructed in 1900 and contains three units (with a cancelled permit attempt for a fourth unit in 2018). The property has experienced several significant structural and safety events, most notably a major fire incident in 2006 that caused substantial damage to roof framing, ceiling joists, walls, and stair structures. This was followed by foundation issues in 2005 requiring emergency repairs, and comprehensive restoration work in 2012-2013 including foundation retrofitting, structural repairs, and complete rewiring of all units. The building underwent significant plumbing updates in 2012-2013, including the installation of new waste systems, water supplies, and gas water heaters for all three units.

Multiple building violations and complaints have been documented, including concerns about illegal basement units in 2013-2015, unsafe lead work practices in 2013, and a period of vacancy following the fire in 2006-2009. The property has had recurring parking enforcement issues near the address, with several citations issued between 2023-2024, and some recent maintenance concerns noted through 311 calls, including flooding and debris removal needs. The most recent permit activity indicates an interest in adding an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) to the existing structure, though this effort was cancelled in 2018. While the building has undergone significant rehabilitation work following past damage, including fire safety improvements with new smoke detectors and system upgrades, the history of structural issues and various violations suggests attention to maintenance and compliance matters has been required over the years.

Risk rating

How 810-816 Central Ave'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

Out of 797 buildings in this neighborhood, 430 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 age

Older buildings tend to have more maintenance challenges; SF's pre-1906 earthquake housing stock carries distinct risk.

Estimated permit spend (past 7 years)

Dollar value of permits pulled at this address — large recent spend can signal deferred-maintenance catch-up.

Building permits, owner's portfolio

Permits pulled across all of this owner's buildings over 7 years.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 54.9%
Moderate concern 23.7%
Severe concern 21.4%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
