Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 1057 W North Shore Ave in Rogers Park is a century-old structure owned by Nancy Alfano, with records showing both street and property-related service requests over the past seven years. The building, constructed in 1912, has displayed relatively minimal issues regarding building violations, with only one recorded during this period. The recent history of service requests has been notably concentrated in 2024, particularly around urban greenery management, with two tree-related requests (one for planting and one for removal inspection) being addressed, along with a water-related issue and an abandoned vehicle complaint, all of which were successfully closed. The property has also experienced pest management concerns, evidenced by a closed rodent baiting complaint in August 2024. While the volume of service requests is relatively moderate at 14 over the seven-year period, it's worth noting that the majority of these recent interactions have been resolved promptly, with only one service request (for tree planting from September 2024) currently remaining open as of October 2023.

Risk rating

How 1057 W North Shore Ave's risk score is calculated

We trained a model on 7 years of Chicago code enforcement data — building violations, 311 complaint history, environmental enforcement, and owner track records. It estimates the probability that the City of Chicago will find a code violation at this address in the next 12 months. Lower % = safer.

What the score means for you

Grade A–B — Low risk

City inspectors rarely find violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Grade C — Moderate risk

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Grade D–F — High risk

Elevated violation and complaint history. City inspectors have found issues here before and are statistically likely to again.
