Logan Square, Chicago IL 60647 13352340290000 4 units · 1899

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Initial analysis

The four-unit building at 3270 W Armitage Ave in Logan Square, owned by ASB Lighthouse LLC, has a documented history dating back to its 1899 construction. Over the past seven years, there have been minimal building permits filed, with only one permit on record during this period. The property has generated a total of 10 service requests to the 311 system, with three building violations recorded against the owner in the same timeframe. The most significant and recurring issue has been related to graffiti, with four separate removal requests filed between February and June 2026, all of which were subsequently closed. Other recent service requests include a blue recycling cart request in August 2025 and a water lead test kit request from July 2025 that remains open as of this report. The building's only environmental complaint, concerning air pollution, was filed in 2011 but was investigated and determined to be unfounded by September of the same year. While the building's age and location in Logan Square point to a historically significant structure, the recent pattern of graffiti-related incidents and the pending water testing matter may be of particular note for current and prospective residents.

Risk rating

How 3270 W Armitage 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.

Neighborhood percentile
26thpercentile
