About this Dataset

Life Safety Evaluations (Deprecated 2015)

OUTDATED. This dataset is not updated after 2015 due to changes in how the source data are maintained. For current information about high-rise buildings required to comply with the Life Safety Evaluation (LSE) Ordinance adopted in 2004, please visit the Department of Buildings section of the City of Chicago Web site and in the main menu select: Department Records and Data > Life Safety Evaluation (LSE) Building Status. -- This dataset is a listing of the report status of all residential buildings required to submit a Life Safety Evaluation under city ordinance. Because the Chicago building code has since 1975 required new high-rise residential buildings to be constructed with sprinkler systems, the Life Safety Ordinance mostly impacted high-rise residential buildings constructed prior to 1975. This dataset does not describe the overall safety of a building, only whether or not the life safety evaluation was submitted and approved by the City of Chicago. Please note that the majority of reports “failed” initially as a result of a new reporting process and changes to building standards.
