Initial analysis

The three-story multi-family residential building at 1570-1580 Hayes Street in Park North is a 6-unit structure built in 1908, currently owned by Daniel J. Sullivan. The building has undergone several significant safety upgrades in recent years, including a comprehensive fire alarm system upgrade in early 2023 to comply with San Francisco Fire Code requirements, and the completion of mandatory soft-story retrofit work in 2016. The property has a documented history of addressing maintenance and safety issues, with the most recent work involving modification of the fire alarm system in September 2023 and repairs to dry rot in a side staircase in March 2023.

The building experienced a major fire incident in 2007 that required extensive repairs, including the replacement of plaster with drywall and various electrical and heating system upgrades. Following this incident, there were multiple housing code violations related to heating, smoke detectors, security, and window repairs, though these were all abated by 2010. More recent building permits show proactive maintenance, including window replacements in 2022 and electrical system upgrades. The property has recorded several false alarm and detector activation incidents, but no civilian injuries have been reported. There were three notable construction-related complaints in 2020-2021 regarding safety and health protocols, though these appear to have been resolved.

Risk rating

How 1570-1580 Hayes 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.
