Initial analysis

The three-story, multi-family residential building at 115-121 Henry Street in Duboce Triangle, owned by Kwan Chuk & Margreta, was constructed in 1904 and contains 7 units. This property has undergone several significant improvements in recent years, most notably completing a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 at a cost of $100,000 to address seismic safety concerns, with the work classified as Tier 3 and a Certificate of Final Completion issued. The building has seen substantial interior upgrades in 2022, including bathroom and kitchen renovations across multiple units, with associated costs of $10,000 and $13,000 respectively, and the installation of a new direct vent heater. Electrical system improvements have been more recent, with work completed in 2014 including an upgrade to an 8-meter, 400-amp service disconnect, though a more recent permit filed in April 2024 to replace electrical panels was cancelled.

The property has a history of maintenance and safety improvements, including foundation repairs in 2002 and multiple unit renovations over the years. In 2002, several violations were recorded relating to security, interior surfaces, and fire safety in a routine inspection, but these were all promptly abated by February 2003. A cluster of complaints was documented in 1996 regarding various maintenance issues including security concerns, but there have been no active violations since 2003. The most recent maintenance issues have been primarily related to routine updates and improvements rather than significant safety concerns. The building's location has experienced typical urban challenges as evidenced by 311 calls, primarily related to external matters such as sidewalk blocking, abandoned vehicles, and street cleaning issues, though these do not directly reflect on the building's condition or management.

Risk rating

How 115-121 Henry 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 287 buildings in this neighborhood, 212 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.

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.

Building size

Total floor area — a proxy for building scale and the number of systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that can fail.

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 41.7%
Moderate concern 28.4%
Severe concern 29.9%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
