Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 1452 W Cullom Ave 2 in Chicago's Lake View neighborhood, owned by Luke Shanley, has been standing since 1912 and has generated 11 service requests through the city's 311 system over the past seven years. The most recent requests indicate ongoing maintenance concerns, with an open water lead test kit request from October 2025 being particularly noteworthy from a health and safety perspective. The building has experienced multiple environmental challenges in 2025 alone, including two tree emergencies in May (one reported to 311 City Services and another to the Alderman's office), a rodent issue in July, and a parking code enforcement review in April. Additionally, there was an alley pothole complaint registered in April 2026, though this would primarily affect outdoor access rather than building conditions. While the total number of service requests isn't exceptionally high for a century-old building, the recent clustering of issues in 2025 and 2026, particularly the open water lead test request, suggests ongoing maintenance and safety matters warranting attention.

Risk rating

How 1452 W Cullom Ave 2'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.
