Small five-unit Elmhurst building with one open administrative filing, but a holiday water burst and nearby food venting warrant a closer look.
Built in 2016, this five-unit Elmhurst walk-up was acquired by KA Sheng Properties LLC in February 2025 for $1.75M. The property carries one open violation for missing its annual bedbug report filing, while building logs show a concentrated winter water event. Three things to know:
A holiday water main emergency spiked calls at the building in late 2025. 19 calls hit city logs between December 22, 2025 and January 2, 2026 reporting leaks and possible water main breaks at this address. While all calls were closed, the concentrated ten-day spike points to a major winter pipe freeze or main break over the holidays.
Commercial food venting and air quality complaints concentrate within three blocks. Within three blocks of the building, city logs show 27 food establishment complaints and 9 indoor air quality reports over the trailing 12 months. Restaurant exhaust and cooking odors frequently travel through shared shafts in mixed-use commercial pockets.
Late-night party noise and driveway blockages cluster on surrounding blocks. 304 commercial noise calls were filed within three blocks over the last year, with 293 specifically citing loud music and parties from commercial venues. Curb activity is similarly dense, with 315 blocked driveway reports nearby, mostly for full access blockages.
