Initial analysis

This three-unit residential building at 665 W Sheridan Rd in Lake View, owned by James Noland, has been in existence since 1905 and has experienced several significant maintenance and safety concerns in recent years. The most pressing current issues include an unresolved building code violation reported in November 2025 and an open plumbing violation reported in June 2026. The property has seen a concerning pattern of rat infestations, with two rodent-related complaints recorded in early 2026 (February and April), though one of these was subsequently closed. Additional maintenance issues have included street infrastructure concerns (a pothole complaint in April 2026) and a sign repair request (submitted in January 2026) that remains open. While the building has only one formal building violation recorded in the past seven years, the volume of plumbing issues (with at least two reported violations/complaints) and pest problems suggests ongoing maintenance challenges. The property's service request history also reflects some attention to external infrastructure, though the predominantly building-related issues indicate areas of concern that may affect resident quality of life.

Risk rating

How 665 W Sheridan Rd'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.
