Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 4041 N Maplewood Ave in Chicago's North Center neighborhood is a 1913 structure currently owned by David & Colleen Zinck. According to the Chicago Master Building Record, the property has generated a total of eight 311 service requests over the past seven years, with all requests now closed. The most recent activity, occurring in late 2025, involved a clean vacant lot request, while the previous three requests from 2025 (two tree planting requests and one tree trim request) were all related to municipal tree management services. The property has primarily required external maintenance services focused on urban greenery, with multiple tree-related requests between 2024 and 2025, though it's worth noting that the tree trim requests for 2025 were submitted under the now-defunct category of "NO LONGER BEING ACCEPTED." The tree maintenance and planting activities suggest ongoing attention to the property's external environment, though the frequency of such requests may indicate challenges in managing the surrounding greenery.

Risk rating

How 4041 N Maplewood Ave 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.
