Source: NYC Department of Buildings, DOB NOW: Build Approved Permits, pulled 2026-10-24 (permits issued through 2026-10-22). A job counts once, when its first permit is issued; renewals are not new work. A build-out groups jobs on the same floors first permitted within 120 days of each other. Costs are the estimates filed with the jobs. Jobs filed before DOB NOW (in the older BIS system) are not counted. A permit is approval to do the work; it does not say who the work is for or whether it is finished.
