1343-1345 4th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The two-story, four-unit multi-family residential building at 1343-1345 4th Avenue in the Inner Sunset neighborhood was built in 1963 and is currently owned by Cooper Stewart. The building has undergone several significant improvements over its history, with the most recent substantial renovation occurring in 2012 when the front siding was converted from wood to stucco on two-thirds of the surface area, and wood-clad windows were installed in the front.

Prior to that, extensive deck and stair repairs were completed in 1999 to replace rotting structures, with similar repairs documented in 1992. The property experienced notable issues with heating and safety systems in the early 2000s, including violations related to inadequate heat maintenance and temperature control in 2002, as well as fire safety concerns regarding fire extinguishers and escape ladders between 2000 and 2006, though all these violations were subsequently abated. More recent history reveals various infrastructure and maintenance matters, including a sewage backup issue in 2018, sidewalk collapse repair in 2018, and ongoing concerns about parking space dimensions and accessibility that were formally documented but resulted in no violation finding by the Planning Department.

The building's parking situation has generated multiple complaints about sidewalk parking between 2018 and 2022, though these were typically not resolved through enforcement action. Recent maintenance actions include a street space permit issued in 2012, though most recent building-related complaints date from several years ago, with the last formal complaint related to the building being filed in 2006 regarding heating issues. The building's historical records show a pattern of routine maintenance and upgrades over time, particularly focusing on safety systems and structural components like decks and stairs, with fewer complaints or violations in recent years compared to earlier decades.
