Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2436 N Drake Ave 1 in Logan Square, owned by The Rivera Living Trust, has a documented history dating back to its 1900 construction. The most significant incident on record occurred in August 2014, when multiple environmental violations were documented related to improper sandblasting, grinding, and chemical washing activities. These violations led to one $1,000 fine, though another violation resulted in a non-suit disposition with no fines imposed. While the fine amount suggests some legal complexity, the case ultimately closed with a combination of liable pleas and non-suit outcomes.

Risk rating

How 2436 N Drake 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.
