Initial analysis

The property at 57 Eureka Street, a one-story multi-family residential building built in 1900, has experienced several significant issues over the past decade that collectively raised serious safety and habitability concerns. Most notably, in late 2014, a major violation was filed stating the unauthorized use of the building as a multi-unit dwelling, highlighting numerous life/safety hazards including unpermitted wiring, plumbing, lack of required smoke detectors, improper fire-resistant materials, absence of second means of egress, and lack of proper heating systems. This violation also documented extensive maintenance issues in Unit 57-A, including damaged entrance threshold, deteriorated deck boards, chipping/peeling paint creating lead hazards, and mold/mildew problems. The building subsequently underwent several corrective actions in 2015, including electrical work, plumbing updates, and stove removal, with permits showing compliance with the original configuration requirements. Prior to these events, the property had documented electrical issues from 2013-2014, including ungrounded receptacles and various electrical repairs.

The history of maintenance and safety concerns extends beyond these major violations, with multiple building permits showing work completed over the years, including window installations in 1989, reroofing in 2005, and various electrical improvements. More recent records from 2022-2025 show primarily external maintenance issues, including sidewalk cleaning and garbage removal requests through 311 calls, though these are less concerning than previous habitability problems. The most recent correction of unit count in early 2025 suggests ongoing monitoring of the property's legal status. Historical complaints indicate some exterior maintenance issues, such as a 2011 combustible materials violation and various sidewalk and street cleaning concerns.

Risk rating

How 57 Eureka 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

Out of 1278 buildings in this neighborhood, 511 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.

Neighborhood location

Precise location is a proxy for neighborhood-level risk — some SF blocks have systematically higher DBI activity.

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.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 72.3%
Moderate concern 15.9%
Severe concern 11.8%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
