Initial analysis

The 90-unit, 6-story mixed-use building at 2180-2198 Market Street in Duboce Triangle, constructed in 2017, has experienced several noteworthy events and safety concerns over its operating history. Most recently, in October 2024, the building received a violation for an unpermitted ERRCS system, and in May 2024 for non-compliance with sleeping area requirements. The property has a history of fire safety issues, with multiple fire code violations documented between 2018 and 2024, including problems with alarm systems, UL certification, and general fire safety compliance, though many of these were subsequently abated. Between 2018 and 2021, significant fire safety improvements were made, including the installation of a comprehensive fire alarm system, additional fire suppression equipment, and a new UL 300 fire system.

The building's construction and occupancy history shows regular maintenance and improvements, with notable work including the 2019 flower shop tenant improvement, mechanical duct reconfigurations, and various plumbing updates. The property has experienced some operational challenges, including three vacant storefront complaints (2019-2020). Historically, during its initial construction period in 2015, there were multiple complaints from neighboring residences regarding construction hours and associated noise, particularly concerning after-hours portable toilet servicing. The building has also undergone various system upgrades, including a solar hot water heating system installation in 2016 and multiple HVAC-related improvements. Recent 311 calls from late 2024 primarily relate to sidewalk maintenance and exterior issues, while fire incidents have generally been limited to false alarms, system malfunctions, and no fire-related activations, indicating generally effective fire system operation despite the noted violations.

Risk rating

How 2180-2198 Market 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
2th percentile

Out of 287 buildings in this neighborhood, 281 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.

Neighborhood location

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

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 13.0%
Moderate concern 59.8%
Severe concern 27.2%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
