Augrented Insights
Initial analysis

The two-unit building at 3941 N Wayne Ave, located in Chicago's Wrigleyville neighborhood, has experienced several noteworthy incidents in recent years. Built in 1903 and currently owned by Nicolas Winston Bailey, the property has a concerning pattern of water-related issues, with multiple complaints in December 2025 including no water supply and low water pressure. These issues culminated in a building violation that same month, though it's notable that there was a water-related complaint that was recorded both through 311 City Services and the Department of Water Management. The building is currently facing an unresolved complaint-driven violation from November 2025, which is particularly concerning given its open status. The property has also generated some neighborhood service requests unrelated to the building's condition, including two abandoned vehicle complaints in early 2026.

Risk rating

How 3941 N Wayne 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.
