Initial analysis

The five-unit residential building at 109 W Hubbard St in Chicago's River North neighborhood, owned by CLARK 25 and constructed in 1881, has experienced several noteworthy events in 2026 that are of particular interest. Notably, there are two open construction-related violations as of February 2026, which raises concerns about compliance with building codes and proper permitting procedures. The property has also generated multiple service requests in recent months, including complaints about unauthorized building permits and construction work in February 2026, though one of these requests was later designated as "information only." The building has seen three additional service requests related to street infrastructure and public space management, including a street light outage and an e-scooter parking issue, both of which have been resolved. While the building's overall violation and service request history over the past seven years shows limited activity (with only one building violation and 19 service requests recorded), the recent cluster of issues in early 2026, particularly regarding construction violations, suggests emerging compliance and safety concerns that may impact resident experience.

Risk rating

How 109 W Hubbard 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
53rdpercentile

Model explanation

Building size

Total building square footage is a proxy for property scale and management complexity.

Property class (211)

Assessor class 211 — small residential (roughly 2–6 units). The assessor's property-class code, which correlates with building type and the violation rates the model expects.
