Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2515 W Cortland St in the Logan Square neighborhood, owned by T Stout and K Peterson, dates back to 1890 and has had minimal documented issues in recent years. The property's historical records over the past seven years show only nine 311 service requests, with the most recent cluster of incidents occurring during July-August 2025. This recent activity has predominantly centered around city services related to waste management, including three requests for garbage cart maintenance and two requests for blue recycling cart services in July 2025, followed by two similar requests in August 2025. Additionally, there was one informational call made to 311 City Services in August 2025. It's worth noting that all recorded service requests have been closed, suggesting they were addressed by the appropriate city departments. The building's record shows no significant safety concerns or major maintenance issues, with the majority of the recent activity being routine municipal service requests related to waste management rather than building-specific problems.

Risk rating

How 2515 W Cortland St'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.
