2312 W 50Th Pl 1

The two-unit residential building at 2312 W 50th Pl 1 in Gage Park, owned by Lorenzo Diaz Lara, is a 127-year-old property that exhibits several concerning patterns in its recent history. Most notably, there are four unresolved building code violations from July 2022 that stemmed from complaint-driven inspections, suggesting that these issues were serious enough to warrant official complaints but remain unaddressed as of October 2023. The building's record also shows an unusual cluster of complaint activity in early 2026, with three business complaints filed through the Alderman's office in February 2026, though these were subsequently closed. Prior to this, there were two abandoned vehicle complaints (December 2025 and September 2025) and a garbage cart maintenance request (September 2025) - all of which were resolved. Looking further back, the property had environmental concerns in 1998, with work orders related to air pollution and service stations/storage tanks, though these appear to have been addressed given their age relative to current records. While the building has had some code violations and multiple service requests, it's worth noting that many of the recent complaints appear to be more related to neighborhood issues rather than building-specific problems.
