Initial analysis

The four-unit residential building at 3832 W Gladys Ave in Garfield Park, owned by Ed Negron, has been facing significant and ongoing maintenance challenges since at least 2024. Of particular concern are the five unresolved building code violations from June 2025, which were triggered by complaint-driven inspections, and the five service requests related to sanitation code violations, including one that remains open as of June 2026. The building's violation history shows a pattern of sanitation-related issues, with three sanitation code violations recorded since 2024-2026, plus a fly dumping complaint in 2026, though one sanitation violation from 2024 has been closed. Between 2017 and 2024, the property accumulated a total of eight building violations and ten service requests through the 311 system, though the majority of these historical records have since been resolved. The 1906 structure's persistent and recent violations, particularly the multiple open violations from mid-2025 and the most recent unresolved sanitation issue from June 2026, indicate ongoing challenges with building maintenance and compliance with city codes.

Risk rating

How 3832 W Gladys Ave 1'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.
