Initial analysis

The Glenridge Apartments, located at 36-78 Addison Street in Glen Park, is a 15-unit, two-story multi-family residential building constructed in 1968. The property has undergone significant improvements over the past two decades, most notably completing a mandatory soft-story retrofit in 2017 at a cost of $81,000, demonstrating compliance with San Francisco's seismic safety requirements. The building has received consistent maintenance attention, as evidenced by recent electrical upgrades in September 2023 with multiple sub-panel replacements, and ongoing water heater maintenance with several replacements documented between 2013 and 2019. A notable renovation was completed in 2018 with the installation of a jetted walk-in tub, indicating improvements to tenant amenities.

The building's maintenance history shows attention to critical infrastructure, including a 2006 window retrofit project and various plumbing and electrical upgrades. Historical violations from 2009-2013 have been resolved, including issues related to water heater installations, security features, and fire safety requirements. Recent 311 calls (2024) primarily relate to external issues such as parking violations and street maintenance, rather than building-specific problems. The property is classified as a Tier 3 soft-story building, and has received its Certificate of Final Completion (CFC), confirming the successful completion of seismic improvements. Recent open 311 calls (2024) include reports of noise, pavement defects, and garbage collection issues, which appear to be neighborhood rather than building-specific concerns.

Risk rating

How 36-78 Addison 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
4th percentile

Out of 364 buildings in this neighborhood, 349 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.

Building size

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

Number of units

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

NOV rate, owner's portfolio

Per-building NOV rate across everything this owner manages — high rates signal pattern neglect.

12-Month severity forecast
No violation 7.9%
Moderate concern 47.4%
Severe concern 44.7%
Estimated probability of receiving a DBI Notice of Violation in the next 12 months at each severity level. Model: full_hgb_balanced.
