1517 W Haddon Chicago

West Town, Chicago IL 60642 17053010190000 40 units · 2015

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years, but our model still flags a rising risk of maintenance problems in the next 12 months. That forecast comes from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area, not from this building's own record — treat it as a reason to ask questions, not as evidence of a problem. No public enforcement record to go on. Walk the building, ask the current tenants how repairs get handled, and get any promises in writing.

Initial analysis

The 40-unit residential building at 1517 W Haddon in the West Town neighborhood of Chicago, owned by WPA2 LLC, has been in operation since its construction in 2015 and has generated a relatively low volume of service requests over the past seven years, with a total of 11 documented cases. The most recent cluster of incidents in 2026 includes four distinct issues: two Finance Parking Code Enforcement Reviews (one in June and another in January), a Graffiti Removal Request in May, a Commercial Fire Safety Inspection Request in May, and a Water On Street Complaint in April. Additionally, during the winter months of 2025-2026, there was an Ice and Snow Removal Request in December. It is notable that all recorded service requests have been closed, indicating that the issues were addressed. The frequency of maintenance and enforcement requests in recent months suggests increased activity compared to earlier years, though the total number of service calls remains modest for a building of this size and age.

Risk rating

How 1517 W Haddon Chicago'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

Lower risk — safer than most nearby

City inspectors rarely find violations here. Strong maintenance history and a clean complaint record.

Typical — about average for the neighborhood

Some past violations or complaints on record. Worth asking the landlord about any open issues before signing.

Higher risk — riskier than most nearby

Elevated violation and complaint history. City inspectors have found issues here before and are statistically likely to again.

Neighborhood percentile
