506 W Diversey Pky

The three-unit building at 506 W Diversey Parkway in Lake View, owned by Oakdale Properties Inc, was constructed in 1920 and has experienced various maintenance and safety issues over the past several decades. Most recently, in 2026, there have been multiple instances of graffiti requiring removal, along with reports of rodent activity and a pothole complaint in the vicinity. The building has a documented history of environmental concerns, particularly during late 1996 and early 1997, with multiple air pollution work order complaints recorded, resulting in two municipal prosecution violations with associated fines of $300 each. The property has registered a total of 28 service requests through the 311 system in the past seven years, along with four building violations, though notably, there have been no building permits or environmental enforcement actions recorded during this recent period. Additionally, there has been one house share violation recorded in the past seven years, suggesting potential issues with unauthorized renting arrangements. While the building has experienced various maintenance and safety concerns over the years, it's worth noting that the most recent service requests primarily involve external issues such as graffiti and street conditions rather than structural or safety problems within the building itself.
