Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 2601 S Halsted St in Bridgeport, built in 1904 and currently owned by TAXPAYER 2601, has maintained a relatively stable record over recent years. The property has generated 26 service requests through the 311 system over the past seven years, primarily relating to street and public space maintenance issues. The most recent cluster of service requests from 2026 includes multiple graffiti removal requests, an abandoned vehicle complaint, a pothole complaint, and a traffic signal issue, all of which have been resolved. Notably, no residential unit-specific complaints or safety issues have been recorded in this period. The building's permit activity has been minimal, with only two building permits issued in the past seven years. Going back further in history, there was one documented air pollution complaint in 1994, though this does not appear to have any direct relevance to current conditions. Overall, the property has shown regular maintenance responsiveness to external public space issues, though the nature and frequency of these service requests primarily reflect neighborhood conditions rather than building-specific concerns.

Risk rating

How 2601 S Halsted 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.
