Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 1528 N Leavitt Street in Wicker Park, owned by Nancy J Wozniak Sugano, is an 1888 structure with a relatively low number of documented issues over the past seven years. The property has experienced minimal building code violations, with only one permit-related inspection violation recorded in July 2019, which has since been resolved. While there have been multiple 311 service requests (totaling seven), most are related to tree management in the vicinity, including three requests about tree removal (two of which have been resolved, one remains open) and one request for tree planting (still open). Other recent service requests include a sidewalk inspection (open), sewer cleaning inspection (closed), and a finance parking code enforcement review (closed) - all issues that appear to be infrastructure or administrative in nature rather than direct building concerns. The building's record shows one environmental complaint regarding air pollution in 2016, which was resolved by January 2016. The limited number of violations and service requests, particularly those most directly related to building conditions, suggests relatively stable maintenance of the property, though several recent tree management issues remain outstanding.

Risk rating

How 1528 N Leavitt 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

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
65thpercentile
