Initial analysis

The 24-unit residential building at 2618 N Rockwell in Logan Square, owned by Southport Properties, has been in operation since 1925. The building's recent maintenance record shows three 311 service requests in the past seven years - a snow removal request and a rodent complaint in 2025, and a dead animal pick-up request in April 2024, all of which have been resolved. While these issues have been addressed through proper channels, their occurrence might indicate periodic maintenance challenges. More concerning is the building's historical compliance record, showing a total of 55 building violations over the past seven years. The property is also under Southport Properties' larger portfolio, which includes 81 total parcels, and has had 52 building permits issued in the past seven years, suggesting ongoing maintenance or improvement projects. Additionally, there have been two environmental enforcement actions and three environmental complaints recorded against the owner during this period, though these represent a small fraction of the overall property management activities. The relatively low number of 311 service requests in recent years, while not necessarily indicative of current conditions, suggests either improved maintenance or reduced reporting activity.

Risk rating

How 2618 N Rockwell 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.
