Initial analysis

The three-unit, 1888 rear building at 1456 N Leavitt St in Wicker Park, currently owned by Macika Properties Inc, has a documented history spanning various maintenance and compliance matters over recent years. The property experienced four environmental enforcement actions in October 2019 related to construction site cleanliness, resulting in two penalties of $500 each (for issues with chain link fences and fabric mesh), a $300 fine for business-related nuisance, though one violation regarding waste treatment and disposal was dismissed with no fines. More recently, the building has generated consistent activity through the 311 service request system, particularly in 2024 and early 2025, with multiple requests for graffiti removal (two instances in October 2024), water lead test kits (two requests in October 2024), a snow complaint (February 2025), and a tree trim request (December 2024). The building's ownership and unit structure are stable, with records showing three total parcels, and while there has been one environmental complaint regarding construction and demolition in 2019 with a founded violation, there have been no recorded incidents suggesting immediate concern for resident safety or habitability in recent years.

Risk rating

How 1456 N Leavitt St Rear'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.

Neighborhood percentile
