AI summary

The 16-unit residential building at 5554 N Kedzie in Chicago's North Park neighborhood, owned by A Haralampopoulos, has been standing since 1977. The property has experienced several concerning issues in recent years, most notably a cluster of seven unresolved building code violations recorded on September 29, 2022, all related to periodic routine inspections. While the total number of building violations over the past seven years is nine, these recent unresolved inspection violations represent the most significant ongoing concern. The building has also generated 13 311 service requests in the past seven years, with the most recent activity occurring in 2026. This includes two closed graffiti removal requests in November 2025, a closed pothole complaint from January 2026, and two abandoned vehicle complaints in 2026, one of which remains open as of May 2026. While some of these service requests pertain to external issues not directly related to the building's condition (such as street maintenance and vehicle complaints), the concentration of unresolved building code violations from 2022 suggests there are inspection-related matters that require attention.

Risk rating

How 5554 N Kedzie Chicago'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.
