The NYC Department of City Planning’s (DCP) Housing Database contains all NYC Department of Buildings (DOB) approved housing construction and demolition jobs filed or completed in NYC since January 1, 2010. It includes the three primary construction job types that add or remove residential units: new buildings, major alterations, and demolitions, and can be used to determine the change in legal housing units across time and space. Records in the Housing Database Project-Level Files are geocoded to the greatest level of precision possible, subject to numerous quality assurance and control checks, recoded for usability, and joined to other housing data sources relevant to city planners and analysts.
Data are updated semiannually, at the end of the second and fourth quarters of each year.
Please see DCP’s annual Housing Production Snapshot summarizing findings from the 21Q4 data release here. Additional Housing and Economic analyses are also available.

These tables are aggregated from the DCP Housing Database Project-Level Files, which is derived from Department of Buildings (DOB) approved housing construction and demolition jobs filed or completed in NYC since January 1, 2010. Net housing unit change is calculated as the sum of all three construction job types that add or remove residential units: new buildings, major alterations, and demolitions.

A list of sites available for solar PV development under NYCHA's ACCESSolar program.

As part of NYCHA's NextGeneration Sustainability Agenda, NYCHA has pledged to put 25 MW of solar power on its properties. One of the avenues by which NYCHA aims to meet this goal is the ACcelerating Community Empowered Shared Solar (ACCESSolar) program, where smaller rooftops will be made available at low or no cost to community-based organizations and non-profits teaming up with solar developers. The ACCESSolar program will help maximize the solar potential of NYCHA’s portfolio. NYCHA also aims for this program to provide green jobs to residents, expand the availability of solar power to LMI populations, and facilitate first projects for start-up developers. ACCESSolar applicants will be able to submit an application online starting in late March 2018.

The ACCESSolar program was previously in development as Public Purpose Shared Solar (PPSS) and has been renamed to better reflect the program's goals.

This data set includes certificates of occupancy issued through the New York City Department of Buildings' DOB NOW: Certificate of Occupancy module. This module was released in March of 2021, anbd from that point onward this data set should be utilized instead of the "DOB Certificate of Occupancy" data set.

New buildings must have a CO, and existing buildings must have a current or amended CO when there is a change in use, egress or type of occupancy. No one may legally occupy a building until the Department has issued a CO or Temporary Certificate of Occupancy (TCO).

A CO confirms that the completed work complies with all applicable laws, all paperwork has been completed, all fees owed to the Department have been paid, all relevant violations have been resolved, and all necessary approvals have been received from other City Agencies. The Department issues a final CO when the completed work matches the submitted plans for new buildings or major alterations."
