Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 3136 N Kenmore Ave, located in the Lake View neighborhood, is a century-old property constructed in 1908 and currently owned by 2035 W Sedgwick LLC. The building's service request history over the past seven years shows a total of ten 311 service requests, with the most recent cluster of complaints occurring in 2025-2026. These recent service requests primarily relate to municipal services, including a missed garbage pick-up (March 2026), uncleared sidewalks following snowfall (January 2026), an abandoned vehicle (October 2025), and issues with garbage and recycling carts including maintenance needs and a request for a blue recycling cart in September 2025. The only historical environmental complaint on record was related to construction and demolition activities, which was reported and resolved in May 2013. While the building has had its share of municipal service issues in recent years, particularly regarding waste management and snow removal, it's worth noting that all service requests have been documented as closed, indicating official acknowledgment and response to each issue.

Risk rating

How 3136 N Kenmore Ave'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.

Neighborhood percentile
