Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 2200 W Monroe St, located in Chicago's United Center neighborhood, is an 1881 structure currently owned by Napoleon Wordlaw. The property's recent history over the past seven years shows it has generated a total of 22 service requests through the 311 system, with the majority occurring in early 2026 during what appears to be a winter weather crisis. Specifically, there were four separate ice and snow removal requests logged between January 14 and January 15, 2026, indicating potential challenges with winter maintenance at the property. Following this period of inclement weather, there were two additional requests in 2026 for a fly dumping complaint (resolved) and current garbage cart maintenance issues (still open). While the overall number of service requests appears moderate for a building of this size and age, the cluster of recent winter-related complaints suggests this may be an area of ongoing concern. The building's permit record shows only two permits filed in the past seven years, though without additional context about their nature or timing, it's difficult to assess their significance to the building's condition or maintenance history.

Risk rating

How 2200 W Monroe 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

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.
