Initial analysis

The 4-unit residential building at 1502 E Marquette Rd in Chicago's Woodlawn neighborhood, owned by Lateefah Neal, has been standing since 1903 and presents a concerning pattern of recent building code violations and service requests. Most notably, there are two open complaints from 2022 and 2026 that warrant attention, including a currently unresolved complaint-driven inspection from June 2022 and two open service requests from April 2026 related to building violations and public way inspection. Between 2019 and 2022, the building experienced multiple complaint-driven inspections, though these were resolved, with the most recent building code violation dating to November 2022 being complied with. The property has also generated several service requests in recent years, including closed requests for garbage cart maintenance and blue recycling cart services in March 2025, and a dead animal pick-up request in May 2026.

Risk rating

How 1502 E Marquette Rd'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.

Neighborhood percentile
20thpercentile
