Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 2506 N Orchard Street in Lincoln Park, owned by Woody Slaymaker, has a documented history dating back to its 1899 construction. The property has experienced 15 building violations over the past seven years and has registered 98 service requests, indicating a relatively high level of resident engagement with municipal services. More recent activity (2024) has focused primarily on tree management in the vicinity, with multiple tree planting and removal requests, including both completed and open requests. Notably, between February and July 2024, five tree-related service activities were recorded, suggesting ongoing environmental management efforts. The building's permit history shows seven permits pulled in the past seven years, though specific details of these permits are not provided in the available data. Additional environmental concerns from 2008 included illegal dumping, though this appears to be an isolated incident from 15 years ago. The property's 311 service requests from 2026 include an abandoned vehicle complaint, while May 2024 saw a parking code enforcement review, indicating some local parking management issues.

Risk rating

How 2506 N Orchard 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

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.
