Initial analysis

The three-unit residential building at 503 W 46th Street in New City, owned by Michael J Biggane, has been standing since 1886 and has experienced a range of issues over the past seven years. The property currently shows two unresolved building code violations dating from January 2020, which represents one of the more significant outstanding concerns regarding resident safety and building maintenance. The building's service request history is relatively active, with a total of 18 requests in the past seven years, though this number almost triples when considering all properties owned by Biggane, with 30 total service requests on record. The most recent cluster of issues appears to center around sidewalk maintenance and vegetation concerns, with open requests from May 2026 regarding sidewalk inspection and tree debris clean-up.

Risk rating

How 503 W 46Th St 1'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.
