265 5th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94118

The three-unit, three-story multi-family residential building at 265 5th Avenue in the Inner Richmond, owned by the Kim & Vivian Lee Revocable Trust, has undergone several significant maintenance and improvement projects since its construction in 1988. Most recently, in September 2023, the building received window replacements in the front bays along with stucco repairs due to dry rot, representing a $20,000 investment in building envelope maintenance.

This followed a $13,000 reroofing project completed in 2021. The building's early history included the installation of a fire sprinkler system in 1987 and some remodeling work, as well as the demolition of a previous structure on the site in late 1986.

The property has experienced recurring issues with dry rot, as evidenced by the 2023 window and stucco project, which addressed similar problems documented in a 1990 permit for front stair repairs. Multiple routine safety inspections by Housing Inspection Services between 1999 and 2015 indicate regular oversight of building conditions. A notable complaint was filed in December 2017 regarding unpermitted foundation work and broken concrete, though this issue was marked as "Not Active." The surrounding area has experienced typical urban challenges, with three documented 311 calls since 2020 relating to street cleaning and parking issues, though these are not directly related to the building's condition or management.
