Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2029 S Wabash Ave was constructed in 1943 and is currently owned by Chris Giannopulos. The property, located in Chicago's Near South Side neighborhood, has had relatively few documented issues over the past six years, with 14 service requests filed through the city's 311 system and only one building permit issued during this period. Most notably, there appears to be an emerging concern regarding water quality in 2025-2026, with multiple related service requests including two open water lead test kit requests and an active water-related complaint that remain unresolved as of 2026. The building has experienced typical urban issues such as abandoned vehicles, fly dumping, and street lighting problems, though the majority of these historical complaints have been resolved, with the exception of the recent water-related matters. While the number of service requests might suggest some level of maintenance or infrastructure concerns, it's important to note that the building has received only one building permit in the past seven years, indicating minimal permitted improvements or modifications to the property during this period.

Risk rating

How 2029 S Wabash Ave'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
96thpercentile

Out of 57 buildings in this neighborhood, 2 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
