2732 N Sayre Chicago

The 8-unit residential building at 2732 N Sayre in Chicago's Montclare neighborhood, constructed in 1929, has an extensive record spanning recent years with numerous documented incidents. The property has generated substantial service activity, with 8,731 service requests submitted through the 311 system over the past seven years, of which only 2 have been specifically related to unit issues (an abandoned vehicle complaint and a water lead test kit request). More concerning is the building's record of violations and enforcement actions, with a staggering 2,228 building violations recorded in the same period, along with 10 environmental enforcement actions and 33 environmental complaints. The property has also accumulated 338 building permits, though the nature and completion status of these permits is not specified in the available data. Additionally, there have been 3 violations related to house sharing activities, suggesting potential unauthorized rental use of the property. The building is currently owned by a tax entity, and while some recent service requests indicate normal city service interactions, such as the water lead test kit request in 2025, the high volume of violations and complaints raises questions about the property's maintenance and regulatory compliance history.
