Initial analysis

The three-story, 69-unit residential building at 6900 S South Shore Drive in Chicago, constructed in 1952, is owned by Subooh Soo and has been the subject of 21 service requests through the 311 City Services system over the past seven years. The most significant recent incidents include two plumbing violations in 2025, which could potentially impact resident comfort and safety, as well as two tree emergency situations in August 2025 that required immediate attention. Other service requests include a pothole complaint from April 2026, though this is outside the building's direct management purview, and one general information call to 311 in August 2025. The building's permit activity has been minimal during this period, with only one building permit recorded over the seven years, suggesting limited structural or major system modifications have occurred. The record shows a relatively high number of service requests for the period, though many appear to be routine municipal matters rather than specific building issues.

Risk rating

How 6900 S South Shore 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.

Neighborhood percentile

Model explanation

Number of units

The number of units affects how the model reads complaint and violation totals — more units means more potential sources.
