Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 2214 N Milwaukee Ave in Logan Square, owned by John Licata, has a lengthy history dating back to its construction in 1881. The property has experienced multiple challenges in recent years, particularly evident in the past seven years, with four building violations recorded. Most notably, there are currently three unresolved complaint-driven inspections from March 2026 that require attention. The building has also seen significant maintenance issues, as demonstrated by the high number of 311 service requests – 102 in total – including six graffiti removal requests in June 2026 and one in March 2026, all of which were closed. The property owner has only obtained one building permit in the past seven years, which raises potential concerns about maintenance and improvements to the aging structure. Historical records show earlier issues as well, including a resolved construction and demolition complaint from January 2024 and a noise complaint from September 2000. The building's documented history suggests ongoing challenges with property maintenance and resident experience, particularly concerning exterior upkeep and unresolved building violations.

Risk rating

How 2214 N Milwaukee 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.
