Initial analysis

The 75-unit residential building at 815 W Bradley in Chicago's Lake View neighborhood, owned by Metropolitan Rental, has a documented history dating back to 1924. The property currently shows significant unresolved issues, with multiple open violations from December 2022 and earlier complaints in February and March 2021, primarily stemming from routine and complaint-driven inspections. The building's recent service history is concerning, with multiple active complaints as of 2026, including at least three building violations and two permit-related issues in June 2026, though there were some service requests that were properly resolved, such as a sewer cleaning inspection and a water on street complaint. Over the past seven years, the building has generated a total of 128 service requests and has been subject to 41 violations under its ownership, indicating ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges. The only recorded environmental complaint dates back to 2006 regarding air pollution, but the lack of recent environmental issues could suggest either improved conditions or potential underreporting. The building has also undergone limited permitted modifications during this period, with only four building permits recorded in the past seven years.

Risk rating

How 815 W Bradley 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.
