Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 1530 W Cullerton St in Chicago's Lower West Side, owned by Brendan Coyle, has a documented history dating back to its 1888 construction. The property has experienced several notable issues in recent years, particularly in late 2024 and 2025. Most concerning were two separate incidents in October 2024 that suggest potential environmental and safety concerns: an air pollution incident that was resolved quickly, and a sanitation code violation. Additionally, in November 2025, there was a rodent-related complaint, which adds to the building's recent history of pest-related issues. The property has also been subject to a building violation reported to the fire department in October 2025, though the specifics of this violation are not documented in the available data. A tree planting request was made and closed earlier in 2025, which while generally positive, represents an administrative matter rather than a direct impact on resident conditions. Over the past seven years, the building has had minimal permit activity, with only one building permit issued, and has experienced no recorded incidents of environmental concerns outside of the single air pollution complaint in October 2024.

Risk rating

How 1530 W Cullerton St'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.
