Initial analysis

The property at 342-344 Connecticut Street in Potrero Hill is a two-story mixed-use building constructed in 1915, containing a ground-floor commercial space and a residential unit above. The building underwent significant renovations in 2016-2018, including a major residential remodel that added an office space and converted it from a 2-bed/1-bath to a 2-bed/2-bath configuration with new patio features. This period also saw substantial commercial improvements, including electrical upgrades, new insulation, drywall work, and the creation of an ADA-compliant bathroom. More recent upgrades include the installation of a new 400-amp electrical service and three meters in 2020, along with various HVAC and plumbing improvements.

The building has experienced recurring parking enforcement issues in the vicinity, particularly regarding blocked driveways, with multiple reports between December 2023 and April 2024. These enforcement requests have generally been either invalidated due to incomplete reporting information or resulted in officers being unable to locate the vehicles in question. The property's owners have explored further development possibilities, including the construction of ADUs in the below-grade levels, though it's worth noting that the building's current configuration includes minimal exterior wall modifications due to being fully covering its lot with property line walls. All recent construction and improvement work has been properly permitted and completed, with no recorded safety violations or resident complaints regarding the building's core systems or structural elements.

Risk rating

How 342-344 Connecticut 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
