Initial analysis

The 28-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 1301-1361 Great Highway, currently owned by Ocean Lodging LLC and built in 1958, has undergone significant recent renovations and faced multiple tenant concerns. Most notably, the property has been in the process of converting garage spaces into nine new Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), with associated work including full rewiring, new fire alarm systems, and plumbing installations throughout 2023-2024. Recent building improvements include hydronic boiler system installations, window replacements, and the addition of a fire sprinkler system. However, there have been serious tenant safety and habitability concerns, particularly during 2023-2024, with multiple complaints regarding construction practices, including dangerous working conditions, sewage leaks, construction without proper permits, and issues with window safety. The building reportedly completed its mandatory soft-story seismic retrofit, though not without complications throughout 2023.

The property has a history of fire safety violations requiring attention to alarm systems, sleeping area requirements, and equipment maintenance, though most have been abated. During recent construction, there were complaints about inadequate garbage management and debris handling. Multiple 311 calls in early 2025 indicate continued concerns about abandoned vehicles and structural maintenance, with one structural maintenance complaint still open. The building's history shows a pattern of responding to various building code requirements, with many recent permits focusing on modernization and safety system upgrades, including the installation of a new hydronic heating system and improved safety features throughout the building. While many of the recent complaints have been marked as "not active," they suggest significant tenant concerns during the construction period about building safety and habitability.

Risk rating

How 1301-1361 Great Hwy'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.
