AI summary

The three-unit building at 4704 N Rockwell Street in Lincoln Square, owned by Mark E. Kruse, is a 1922 vintage property that has generated a total of 10 service requests through the 311 system over the past seven years. The most recent service request, filed in May 2026, relates to a tree removal inspection, while earlier in 2026, there was an investigation into a possible leak. Throughout 2025, there were several notable incidents including an ice and snow removal request in December, an open fire hydrant complaint in June, and two separate tree-related emergencies in May, all of which have been resolved. The service history suggests the building has experienced recurring issues with tree-related matters, as evidenced by both emergency situations and the ongoing tree removal inspection request, though most other documented issues appear to have been successfully addressed through normal municipal channels.

Risk rating

How 4704 N Rockwell St 1'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.
