Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 220 W 24th Place in Chicago's Chinatown neighborhood, owned by Peter Lee, is an 1889 structure that has shown some concerning recent patterns. As of September 2024, there are two unresolved complaint-driven building code violations that have emerged this month, representing the most significant current concern regarding building conditions. Over the past seven years, the property has recorded a total of eight 311 service requests, with the most recent being a tree planting request from July 2025 that remains open. Other notable service requests include two garbage cart maintenance requests (January 2025 and January 2026) that were successfully resolved, a rat complaint from January 2025 that was addressed, and a street pothole complaint from December 2025 that was closed. A building permit and construction violation recorded in June 2024 was resolved. While the history shows some maintenance and neighborhood service issues typical of an older two-flat building in an urban area, the most pressing current concern appears to be the two open building code violations from September 2024.

Risk rating

How 220 W 24Th Pl'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
