AI summary

The 5-unit, 3-story multi-family residential building at 811-815 Clement Street in the Inner Richmond, constructed in 1923, has undergone several significant modifications and faced various regulatory challenges over its lifetime. Most notably, in 2016, substantial accessibility improvements were implemented including ADA bathroom renovations, kitchen remodeling per health department requirements, and corresponding plumbing and electrical work, with these upgrades showing proper completion status. The building's historical records show earlier maintenance work including reroofing in 1989, and in the early 2000s, there were two sidewalk repair permits issued. A serious cluster of building violations was documented in late 2004, all of which were resolved by February 2005, involving issues with fire safety features such as smoke enclosure door closers, fire escape ladders, ventilation for habitable rooms, fire sprinklers over garbage receptacles, and egress obstructions.

More recent history shows the building has experienced periodic issues with graffiti and garbage/debris management in the vicinity, with multiple 311 calls between 2024 and 2022. A complaint regarding an unauthorized sign installation was filed in April 2022. The building has triggered several false fire alarm incidents, though none resulted in civilian injuries. Current available planning records indicate approval for the continuation of a restaurant use (Tasty Pot) on the premises, along with associated ABC license approvals for this commercial operation. The property has maintained good resolution practices for historical violations, as evidenced by the timely abatement of the 2004 complaints and the completion status of recent permits, though the open status of graffiti cases in 2024 indicates ongoing maintenance challenges in the immediate area.

Risk rating

How 811-815 Clement 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.
