Initial analysis

The three-unit building at 3049 S Broad St in Chicago's Bridgeport neighborhood is a historic property dating back to 1878, currently owned by Fang Yun Huang. The building has experienced several significant issues in recent years, with particular attention needed on unresolved matters. As of October 2023, there are three open building code violations from October 2025, including two related to complaint-driven inspections and one concerning permit-related issues. While there were six complaint-driven violations in 2024 that were resolved, the pattern suggests ongoing compliance challenges. The property has generated multiple 311 service requests over the past seven years, including recent incidents such as a no water complaint in January 2026, a report of an injured animal in November 2025, and multiple tree planting requests in January 2025. Of note are some building-related violations in August 2025, including complaints about construction work without proper permits. The building's historical record includes two air pollution complaints from May 1993, though these are quite dated compared to the more recent issues on file. The total counts for the past seven years show nine building violations, nine 311 service requests, and two building permits, suggesting limited construction activity relative to the number of violations and service requests.

Risk rating

How 3049 S Broad 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.
