Work type
9537 filings in the current snapshot are recorded as new buildings, across 5 boroughs. 569 changed status in the last 7 days.
The city sorts filings by the kind of work proposed. A filing records what was submitted, not what has been built: many are approved and never started, and some are withdrawn.
9,537 new-building filings are on record, 7.4% of every filing published here, together proposing 615,841 homes.
Staten Island holds 2% of everything on record but 8% of new-building filings — more than 4 times the citywide rate.

These are filings, not finished buildings. Many are approved and never started, and the storey and home counts are what the applicant proposed rather than what was built. The catalog is a rolling window over recent Department of Buildings activity rather than the city’s whole history, which is why the figures above are given as shares — a share survives the window, a count does not. How the record is built.
