AI summary

The three-unit residential building at 329 W Eugenie Street in Old Town, owned by Sam S Simmerman, is a historic property constructed in 1884. The building has experienced some regulatory scrutiny in recent years, with three building code violations recorded over the past seven years, two of which were permit-related inspections in July 2020 (both resolved), while one remains unresolved as of January 2021. The property has generated a total of 24 service requests through the city's 311 system during this period, with the majority of recent requests in 2026 being related to yard waste pick-up (three requests) and street maintenance issues including potholes (two requests) and water on the street (one request). Additionally, there was one environmental complaint filed in November 2020 regarding air pollution, though this was investigated and no violation was found on the same day. While the building's permit-related violations and environmental complaint have been addressed, the open violation from 2021 and the concentration of recent service requests suggest ongoing maintenance and compliance monitoring may be warranted.

Risk rating

How 329 W Eugenie 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.
