Initial analysis

The three-unit, 1916 West Loop building at 835 W Washington Blvd, currently owned by Kavi Gupta, has experienced a relatively minimal number of documented issues over the past seven years. The most significant cluster of violations occurred in September 2019, when multiple permit-related inspection violations were recorded, though it is worth noting that all these violations were subsequently resolved. More recently, in late 2025, there was a notable pattern of winter weather-related service requests, with five incidences of uncleared sidewalks due to snow between December 4-9, as well as one ice and snow removal request. Additionally, there was a sign repair request for a one-way sign in late November 2025. Looking at the overall record, there have been no documented building code violations in the past four years (2019-2023), which suggests improved compliance in recent times, though the pattern of snow-related service requests in late 2025 indicates ongoing winter maintenance challenges in the immediate vicinity.

Risk rating

How 835 W Washington Blvd'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.
