Initial analysis

The three-unit, 1908 brick building at 2844 N Burling St in Lake View, currently owned by Francis McManigal, has a documented history spanning several decades. The most recent pattern of service requests shows a recurring need for yard waste pick-up between 2025 and 2026, with six such requests filed in the latter part of 2025 and early 2026, suggesting regular maintenance of the property's green space. There was one recorded incident of a missed garbage pick-up in December 2025, though this appears to be an isolated event in the context of the overall service request history. Going further back, the property had a notable environmental complaint regarding air pollution in August 2005, though there are no recent environmental issues on record. While the building has generated 30 service requests over the past seven years, the majority are routine waste management requests rather than structural or safety concerns. The relative age of the building and its continued active maintenance record, as evidenced by regular yard waste requests, suggests ongoing upkeep by the current ownership.

Risk rating

How 2844 N Burling St'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.
