Initial analysis

The three-story, 6-unit multi-family residential building at 146-150 Russ Street in the South of Market neighborhood is a 1909 structure currently owned by Robert C. III & Clare L. Gord. The property has undergone significant improvements in recent years, including the addition of two new units on the ground floor (completed in 2020) and comprehensive safety upgrades. In 2023, a new 200-amp electrical panel was installed, and in 2020, a manual fire alarm system with sprinkler monitoring was added, building on earlier fire safety improvements that included the installation of 35 sprinklers throughout the building. The building has successfully completed its mandatory seismic retrofit, achieving Tier 4 certification.

The property has a history of addressing safety and maintenance issues, most notably during a health and safety inspection in 2011 that identified several violations including combustible storage concerns and stair repairs, though these were all abated by May 2012. An exterior renovation in 2019 included a new 400-amp main switch and eight sub-panels, demonstrating ongoing infrastructure upgrades. The building has experienced three documented smoke detector activations (none resulting in fire), showing the fire safety system is operational. Recent exterior maintenance has focused on landscaping and street cleaning, with multiple reports of encampments and debris removal in the surrounding area throughout 2024, though these are external to the building itself.

Risk rating

How 146-150 Russ 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.

Moderate concern 62.6%
Severe concern 10.9%
