Initial analysis

The six-unit building at 3359 N Southport in Chicago's Lake View neighborhood, owned by HPL 3359 SO PORT LLC, has been in operation since 1921 and has recorded several significant maintenance and service events over the past seven years. Most notably, there are two unresolved complaint-driven building code violations from June 2019 and July 2020, and while there was a permit-related inspection violation in October 2025, this has been resolved. The property has generated six 311 service requests in recent years, with the most recent being a sewer cleaning inspection request from May 2026, which has been closed. Other service requests include an open sign repair request (May 2026), an alley pothole complaint (May 2024) which was closed, and various winter maintenance issues such as ice and snow removal (January 2026) and tree trimming (April 2026). The building has had minimal permits filed during this period, with only one building permit recorded. While the recent service requests primarily relate to infrastructure maintenance and public space concerns, the outstanding code violations from 2019 and 2020 merit attention as these represent the only remaining unresolved building safety issues on record.

Risk rating

How 3359 N Southport 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.

Neighborhood percentile
9thpercentile
