Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 4159 N Narragansett Ave in the Portage Park neighborhood, owned by Kathleen Conneely, has been standing since 1920. The property has generated a total of six 311 service requests over the past seven years, with all records showing closed statuses. The most recent service request, from March 2026, involved a traffic signal complaint. Notably, during the latter half of 2025, there was a concerning pattern of issues on and around the property, with three separate abandoned vehicle complaints filed between June and December of that year. There was also a tree trimming request made in June 2025, though it's worth noting that this type of request is no longer being accepted. Additionally, a sign repair request was submitted and addressed in January 2025. While the frequency of service requests appears relatively low, it's important to note that most of these issues were related to matters outside the building itself, focusing more on street and city infrastructure concerns rather than the residential property.

Risk rating

How 4159 N Narragansett 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.
