Initial analysis

The two-unit building at 1414 W Superior St in Chicago's West Town neighborhood is a 133-year-old property currently owned by Conrad White. The building's recent history has been relatively quiet, with only one service request recorded in the past seven years—a garbage cart maintenance issue in May 2026, which has since been resolved. However, the property's past does include a significant incident in October 2007 involving multiple environmental violations related to illegal dumping, for which the property was subject to four separate administrative hearings. Three of these violations, coded under sections 13-32-125 (2G), 13-32-125 (2A), and 11-4-630, resulted in $500 fines, while one violation under section 7-28-080 was notable for its "Not Guilty" disposition. All these violations have been closed, but they represent the only recorded environmental enforcement actions associated with this address in the available data. Since 2007, there have been no further reported violations or environmental complaints, suggesting improved compliance in recent years.

Risk rating

How 1414 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

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.
