Initial analysis

The two-unit building at 2441 W Lexington St in Chicago's Little Italy/UIC neighborhood, built in 1889 and currently owned by Bryan Hsueh, has experienced several concerning issues in recent months. Most notably, between March and August 2025, there have been multiple complaints regarding vacant or abandoned building conditions, with three such incidents reported in March, June, and July. The property has also seen a cluster of maintenance and safety concerns, including a water-on-street complaint and a building violation in August 2025. This recent pattern of abandoned property issues, along with a building violation cited earlier this year, suggests significant challenges regarding maintenance and occupancy status. Looking at the broader seven-year history of the building, there have been 23 total 311 service requests, only one building permit filed, and a total of 10 building violations recorded against the owner. These figures indicate a relatively low level of permitted improvements compared to the number of reported issues and violations, which could reflect on the property's overall maintenance and management responsiveness.

Risk rating

How 2441 W Lexington 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.
