Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 6220 N Broadway Street in Chicago's Edgewater neighborhood, owned by Timothy Harrington, has been in existence since 1910 and has experienced several noteworthy events in recent years. Most concerning is the pattern of unresolved periodic routine inspection violations, with five such violations recorded on August 15, 2024, along with an additional open violation from October 13, 2023. These recurring inspection issues suggest ongoing compliance challenges that could impact resident safety and building maintenance. The property has also experienced some instances of vandalism, evidenced by three graffiti removal requests filed in May 2024 and one additional graffiti request in April 2026, though these aesthetic issues have been consistently addressed, as indicated by their closed status in the 311 service request system.

Risk rating

How 6220 N Broadway 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

Grade A–B — Low risk

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

Grade C — Moderate risk

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

Grade D–F — High risk

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