Initial analysis

The 3740 N Halsted building is a 269-unit residential property located in Chicago's Lake View neighborhood, constructed in 2011 and currently owned by Halsted Grace Ventures. The building's record over the past seven years shows relatively few serious issues, with only one building violation recorded - a complaint-driven inspection from August 2019 that remains open and unresolved as of the most recent data. However, the property has experienced a noticeable pattern of pest-related concerns, particularly in 2025, with four rodent baiting/rat complaints logged between August and November of that year, though all of these have been marked as closed. The most recent service requests include an open tree removal inspection from June 2026 and an open sign repair request from October 2025. While the building has generated multiple service requests (38 in total) over the past seven years, this number is relatively modest considering its size and age, though recent months have seen an increased frequency of maintenance-related issues being reported, particularly regarding pest control and exterior maintenance.

Risk rating

How 3740 N Halsted Chicago'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.
