Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2308 N Monticello Ave in Logan Square, owned by Patrick D Somerville, is a 130-year-old structure built in 1893. The property has experienced several maintenance and compliance challenges in recent years, with one unresolved building code violation recorded in June 2025, resulting from a complaint-driven inspection. The building's service request history shows notable activity, particularly in September 2025, when multiple plumbing violations were reported and subsequently closed, alongside two other building violations that were also resolved during that month. Additionally, there was a porch inspection request in June 2025 that reached a closed status. A more routine municipal service request for a blue recycling cart was made and closed in February 2026. While the building's recent history shows some pattern of violations and service requests primarily concentrated in mid-2025, most of these issues appear to be resolved, with the exception of the most recent building code violation.

Risk rating

How 2308 N Monticello 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

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

City inspectors rarely find violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. City inspectors have found issues here before and are statistically likely to again.
