Initial analysis

The 5632 N Sheridan building in Chicago's Edgewater neighborhood is a 345-unit high-rise constructed in 1950 and currently owned by Halim Bryn Mawr. The building has experienced significant maintenance and safety oversight in recent years, with a total of 29 building code violations recorded over the past seven years, including three recent complaint-driven violations in September 2025 that have been resolved, though there remain three open violations from earlier dates in 2024 and 2022. Service requests to the city have been relatively frequent, with 31 total requests in the same period, including multiple plumbing-related issues in 2026 that are both open and closed, and other miscellaneous requests such as a tree trim (no longer accepted), pothole complaint, and a general information call. The property has had minimal building permits issued in the last seven years, with only three on record, which suggests limited permitted alterations or improvements. An environmental complaint regarding air pollution was recorded and resolved in November 2016. The building's record shows a pattern of ongoing maintenance challenges, particularly in plumbing systems, as indicated by the frequency of related service requests.

Risk rating

How 5632 N Sheridan 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

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.
