The three-unit multi-family residential building at 1315-1317 5th Avenue in the Inner Sunset, owned by the Chen, shuatan T Liv Tr trust, has a history of both maintenance and compliance issues dating back several decades. Built in 1914, this three-story building has undergone several significant exterior improvements, including a complete stucco replacement project in 2008 costing $26,500, reroofing in 1995, and the removal of a brick facade in favor of stucco in 1990. The property experienced substantial compliance enforcement in 2005 when multiple violations were recorded regarding stairs and fire proofing, all of which were resolved within approximately two months.

Earlier repairs included addressing deteriorated posts, stringers, and handrails in 2005, repairing rear exterior stairs in 1983, and bringing the building into code compliance in 1984. Recent concerns primarily involve exterior maintenance issues, with a notable sidewalk defect reported in August 2023. The building's recent history shows typical urban maintenance matters including general cleaning and graffiti removal in 2019-2020.

The property has undergone routine housing inspections in 1997, 1999, 2005, and 2010, suggesting regular oversight by housing authorities. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues over the years, most of the significant violations have been addressed promptly, with no active violations currently on record. The recent complaints primarily involve external factors such as graffiti, sidewalk conditions, and parking issues, rather than building-specific concerns.
