West Town, Chicago IL 60642 17081080330000 3 units · 2008

Nothing on record for this building in the last seven years. Our model still sees a moderate chance of maintenance problems in the next 12 months, from the owner's wider portfolio and the surrounding area rather than from anything recorded here. 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 three-unit building at 1504 W Huron St in West Town, owned by Juanbosco Ayala, was constructed in 2008 and has experienced several notable events throughout its history. The most concerning recent issue is the ongoing water-related concerns in 2025, with both a water lead test kit request still marked as open and a water on street complaint that has since been closed. The building's earlier history in 2008 shows two asbestos-related work orders, which appeared shortly after the building's construction. Administrative violations were recorded in 2008 and 2009, with fines totaling $1,300 for various code violations, all of which have since been closed. The property has had a relatively low number of service requests in recent years, with only nine 311 service requests recorded in the past seven years, including three street cleaning requests, an ice and snow removal request, an alley pothole complaint, and a water-related issue in 2025. A noise complaint was filed in 2016, but no violations were found. The building's record shows compliance with all resolved violations, though the recent water lead test kit request could indicate potential environmental concerns that warrant monitoring.

Risk rating

How 1504 W Huron 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
35thpercentile
