Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 1927 W Superior Street in Chicago's West Town neighborhood, owned by Louie Cristello, has a documented history dating back to 1890. The property has experienced some notable issues in recent years, with two open building code violations remaining unresolved since December 15, 2020, following complaint-driven inspections. The building's maintenance record over the past seven years shows a total of five 311 service requests, with the most recent complaints in January and February 2025 regarding uncleared sidewalks during snow conditions, both of which have been closed. Other recent service requests include a September 2024 pothole complaint, an April 2024 issue with blue recycling cart services, and a March 2024 graffiti removal request - all of which have been resolved. Looking further back, there was a validated noise complaint in September 2012, although this is now over a decade old and likely no longer relevant to current conditions. The property has maintained a relatively low number of documented issues in comparison to its age and unit count, though the presence of open building violations from 2020 warrants attention.

Risk rating

How 1927 W Superior 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

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.
