1445-1447 47th Ave, San Francisco, CA 94122

The two-unit residential building at 1445-1447 47th Avenue in San Francisco's Outer Sunset neighborhood is a two-story flats and duplex structure built in 1964, currently owned by Mark Gordon and Lau Anne Shek. The property has undergone several significant improvements over the past decade, including a completed housetrap replacement in 2014, an $18,000 rear stair replacement in 2021, and recent work filed in December 2022 for the replacement of four front aluminum windows with vinyl windows.

The building's maintenance history includes some concerning issues from 1995, when multiple housing complaints were filed regarding defective flooring, missing smoke detectors, inoperable kitchen appliances, plumbing problems, and disrepair of the wood fence - though these issues were ultimately abated by September 1995. More recent complaints and maintenance issues appear relatively minor, including a general maintenance inquiry in January 2024 and reports of sidewalk blockage due to construction materials in 2015, which was promptly resolved.

The property's external maintenance record shows attention to public space obligations, with resolved cases for street cleaning and pavement defects reported in 2019, though there have been some recurring issues with driveway blocking, resulting in citations in both 2019 and most recently in February 2024. The building's permit history demonstrates ongoing investment in property maintenance and improvement, with particular attention to window and stair infrastructure, while plumbing and general maintenance issues suggest regular upkeep challenges typical of older residential buildings. The most recent construction activity, consisting of window replacement and stair work, indicates the owners are actively maintaining and upgrading the property's essential systems and appearance.
