Unlock complete reportThe four-unit residential building at 4525 S Hermitage Ave in Chicago's New City neighborhood, owned by Christiana Partners LLC, has an extensive history of vacant building violations between 2013 and 2017, with six separate citations issued during this period. All these violations were related to the building's failure to secure and maintain a vacant property and the required presence of watchmen, though notably none of these violations resulted in fines as all were disposed of as "City non-suit." The building's permit activity over the past seven years has been minimal, with only two permits issued, while service requests through the 311 system have also been limited, totaling just one complaint about garbage cart maintenance in December 2025, which has since been closed. The property's record shows a concerning pattern of vacancy-related code enforcement issues during 2013-2017, though more recent activity (or lack thereof) suggests improved compliance or reduced building usage. The building, constructed in 1891, appears to have returned to relatively minimal regulatory scrutiny in the past several years, with no recent violations or repeated issues regarding the previous vacant building maintenance concerns.

How 4525 S Hermitage Ave'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.
Out of 4189 buildings in this neighborhood, 2430 are predicted to be safer.
