Unlock complete reportThe two-unit residential building at 4310 W Van Buren St, located in the Garfield Park neighborhood, is a 1903 structure currently owned by Sheila Mitchell. Over the past seven years, the building has experienced relatively minimal issues, with only one documented building code violation in December 2021 that was resolved. However, there have been some concerning patterns in the property’s maintenance history. A significant violation regarding vacant/abandoned building maintenance was issued in August 2022, citing failure to secure and maintain a vacant building and requiring a watchman; while this violation was ultimately dismissed through a city non-suit and incurred no fines, it indicated a period of security concerns. More recently, there are two 311 service requests on record: a sanitation code violation from May 2024 that was resolved and a sidewalk inspection request from November 2024 that remains open, suggesting potential ongoing maintenance or safety concerns in an outdoor common area. The building's documented history includes one scofflaw violation, though the specific nature of this infraction is not detailed in the records. While the overall number of violations and service requests is relatively low, the presence of recent and open service requests, particularly regarding sidewalk conditions, warrants attention to this aspect of the property.
