Initial analysis

The three-story, 15-unit residential building at 1446 E 70th Street in Chicago's South Shore neighborhood, constructed in 1937 and currently owned by Dorcheser Artist LLC, has maintained a relatively quiet record over the past seven years with only 13 service requests logged through the city's 311 system. The majority of recent requests, totaling five between October and December 2025, were related to tree trimming needs, though it's worth noting that this specific request type is no longer being accepted by the city. All these tree-related requests have been closed. The most recent service request, still open as of May 2026, involves a sign repair issue, though this appears to be an isolated matter compared to the earlier tree-related requests. While the building's service request history shows some maintenance needs, particularly regarding vegetation management in late 2025, there are no recorded incidents or requests that significantly impact resident safety or comfort. The property has been managed with relatively few service requests overall, especially considering its age and size.

Risk rating

How 1446 E 70Th Chicago'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.
