Initial analysis

The property at 2916 22nd Street in San Francisco's Inner Mission is a two-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1909, currently owned by Harry William Arnott. The building has experienced recurring fire safety issues over the past several years, with multiple fire code violations recorded between 2019 and 2024, including alarm system maintenance violations, sprinkler system concerns, and multiple safety code breaches for which violations were issued. Most recently, in November 2024, a violation was issued regarding alarm system maintenance, though records indicate this was subsequently abated.

The building's location has been subject to various environmental and maintenance challenges, particularly in 2024, with numerous reports of sidewalk cleaning needs, garbage and debris issues (including human waste), and two incidents involving property damage from trees impacting windows or the building itself. There are also ongoing concerns about street maintenance, with various street space and sidewalk permits issued in 2013 and 2016, and more recent reports of sidewalk blockage by privately maintained vegetation that remains open as of January 2024. While the property has addressed many of these issues as evidenced by "Closed Case Resolved" statuses, the repeated nature of both fire safety and street maintenance concerns over the years suggests these represent persistent challenges for the property and its surroundings.

Risk rating

How 2916 22Nd 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.
