Initial analysis

The two-unit building at 959 W 35th Place in Bridgeport, owned by James J Pavic, has a documented history dating back to its 1889 construction, though the most pressing concerns are recent and ongoing. Most notably, there are currently six open building code violations from August 2024, as well as six open violations from June 2021, all classified as complaint-driven inspections. This pattern suggests persistent and unresolved issues that may affect resident safety and comfort. In addition to these building code violations, the property has experienced recurring pest control challenges, with three documented rodent baiting complaints between January and October 2025, though these were subsequently closed. The building's external environment has also presented some maintenance needs, as evidenced by a tree emergency in July 2025 and an open tree planting request from April 2025, though a separate tree-related service request from December 2025 has been resolved. The property's record includes a total of 19 service requests and 16 building violations over the past seven years, indicating ongoing maintenance and compliance challenges that prospective or current tenants should be aware of.

Risk rating

How 959 W 35Th 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.
