Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2414 W Winnemac Ave in Lincoln Square, owned by Charles Baker, has documented its history through several notable incidents in recent years. The 1902 structure has a relatively low volume of service requests and permits, with only nine 311 service requests and a single building permit recorded in the past seven years, which is atypical for an urban property of its age and size. Recent concerns include a rodent baiting complaint and a graffiti removal request in 2026, both of which have been closed. Currently, there are two active service requests from May 2025 related to tree maintenance (both planting and removal) and an open water lead test kit request from August 2025, which could be of particular health and safety significance to current and prospective residents. The building's permitted modification history appears minimal, with only one building permit filed in the past seven years, though this may require verification against other potential permit sources. The property's owner, Charles Baker, has a record of 26 service requests across four total parcels in the Chicago area, though the nature and resolution of these additional requests are not specified in the provided data.

Risk rating

How 2414 W Winnemac 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

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

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

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

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

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

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

Neighborhood percentile
