Initial analysis

The three-story, 12-unit residential building at 1254 N Noble Street in Chicago's West Town neighborhood, owned by Chester Klepacz, is an 1892 structure with a notably high number of recent incidents and unresolved issues. Of particular concern are two open building code violations recorded on October 22, 2025, which suggest ongoing health or safety concerns that have not been addressed as of October 2023. The property has generated multiple 311 service requests over the past seven years, with an unusual cluster of activity occurring in 2025 alone, including seven documented requests between April and October 2025. These requests cover various issues such as graffiti removal, a building violation, and more recent matters like weed removal and a tree emergency, though most of these earlier requests are marked as closed.

Risk rating

How 1254 N Noble 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
5thpercentile

Out of 2271 buildings in this neighborhood, 2157 are predicted to be safer. The band is relative to this neighborhood, so a share of every neighborhood falls in each colour.
