Unlock complete reportThe eight-unit residential building at 1206 N Laramie in Chicago's Austin neighborhood, owned by Delfino Castillo, is a 1927 construction that has experienced several concerning issues in recent years. Most notably, there is an unresolved building code violation from August 2019 and multiple open sanitation code violations in 2026, with six such violations documented between May and June 2026 alone, suggesting persistent maintenance and cleanliness challenges. The property has also faced rodent issues, evidenced by a closed rodent baiting complaint in May 2026, though it's worth noting that this was resolved. The building's service history includes a cluster of problems in 2026, with three open sanitation violations and an alley pothole complaint in May 2026, indicating ongoing infrastructure and maintenance challenges. A single building permit was recorded in the past seven years, which may reflect limited investment in property improvements. While there was an environmental complaint about illegal dumping that was validated and resolved in June 2021, this appears to be an isolated incident compared to the more recent sanitation issues.
