Unlock complete reportThe eight-unit residential building at 1201 W Grenshaw in Chicago's Little Italy neighborhood, constructed in 2006 and owned by Roosevelt Square I LP, has maintained a relatively clean maintenance record over the past seven years. The building has recorded a total of 21 service requests through the 311 system, with the most recent cluster of complaints occurring in late 2025 to early 2026, including incidents such as water in the basement, alley lighting issues, and street infrastructure concerns like a pothole complaint. While these service requests indicate routine maintenance and infrastructure matters, only one building code violation has been documented in the past seven years, which was resolved in April 2023 and related to a permit inspection. The property has also required two building permits during this period, though their specific nature is not detailed in the available data. The relatively low number of violations and service requests over this seven-year period, with no major safety concerns reported, suggests regular building maintenance and prompt attention to code compliance requirements by the current ownership.
How 1201 W Grenshaw Chicago'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.
Out of 1135 buildings in this neighborhood, 1033 are predicted to be safer.
