Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 1456 W Diversey Parkway in the Lake View neighborhood, owned by Stephen John Beahon, is a century-old property constructed in 1904. Over the past seven years, the building has generated 18 service requests through the 311 system, with the most recent activity occurring in 2026, consisting primarily of four graffiti removal requests between January and June 2026. These recent incidents suggest a recurring issue with vandalism in the immediate vicinity of the property, though all reported incidents have been promptly addressed and closed. Additionally, there was one tree debris clean-up request in October 2025 and an inspect public way request in June 2025, both of which were also resolved.

Risk rating

How 1456 W Diversey Pky'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.
