1323-1325 17th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The two-unit multi-family residential building at 1323-1325 17th Avenue in the Inner Sunset, owned by Kenneth F. Hwang, is a 2-story flats and duplex structure built in 1924. The building has undergone several significant improvements over the years, with the most recent major work being a reroofing project completed in 2015 at a cost of $8,000.

In 2009, comprehensive renovations were performed on both units, including bathroom and kitchen updates, stairway repairs, and lighting improvements, costing $42,000. A notable incident occurred in 2009 when an unpermitted sunroom was constructed at the rear of the building, though this was eventually resolved by 2014. The building had a significant set of violations recorded in 2001, primarily related to safety concerns including stair repairs, mold issues, and fire safety matters, all of which were abated within two months. Historical records show a cancelled permit from 2007 for vertical and horizontal additions and a stair replacement project valued at $447,000, as well as a kitchen remodeling permit from 1994 and compliance work completed in 1986.

The property's recent history appears stable, with no active violations or complaints since 2011. The building underwent a successful dwelling unit merger process that converted it from 3 units to 2 units, with planning records indicating this was approved under the oversight of Space Architecture. While the building has experienced various maintenance issues over the years, most have been addressed promptly and there have been no recent patterns of recurring problems. The most recent major work, the 2015 reroofing, suggests ongoing attention to building maintenance by the current ownership.
