Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 810 W Altgeld St in the Sheffield & DePaul neighborhood, owned by Thomas Holl, has experienced a notable pattern of issues over recent years, with the most concerning developments occurring in 2023. Two open building code violations were recorded in April 2023, resulting from a complaint-driven inspection that remains unresolved as of October 2023. The property has also generated a significant number of service requests, totaling 20 under the current ownership, with 18 of these being routed through the 311 system. Particularly concerning was a cluster of six leak-related complaints during December 2025, all of which were closed, suggesting a potentially persistent moisture or plumbing issue that may have required multiple interventions. More recently, an open sidewalk inspection request was filed in April 2026, though its current status or resolution is undetermined. The building's permit activity over the past seven years has been minimal, with only two permits pulled on record.

Risk rating

How 810 W Altgeld 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.
