Initial analysis

The two-unit residential building at 2649 W 55th Street in Gage Park, owned by Gabriela Andrade, has been part of the city's records since its construction in 1924. The property has experienced four documented 311 service requests over the past seven years, with the most recent being an open sign repair request from May 2026. Of particular concern is a repeat water issue in the basement, with two identical complaints filed on August 18, 2025, though these complaints have since been closed. The building's other documented service interactions include a tree trimming request from August 2024, which is no longer being accepted. While the historical records show relatively few service requests for a nearly century-old building, the recent water-related issues and ongoing sign repair needs warrant attention.

Risk rating

How 2649 W 55Th 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.
