New York City building permits, read every day.
New York City, NY's feed did not answer: 400 Bad Request
How many building permits are filed in New York City each day?
New York City publishes permits through an open-data feed which EarlyIntent reads daily.
Where does New York City permit data come from?
Directly from the city's Socrata open-data portal at data.cityofnewyork.us, dataset rbx6-tga4. It is an official government API, not a scraped page, and it is read once a day.
Can I get New York City permits as sales leads?
Yes. EarlyIntent scores every permit for buying intent by trade, solar, roofing, HVAC and real estate, and delivers a ranked feed carrying the reason each one scored and the next step to take. A territory is one trade in one geography, and on Pro and above it is exclusive to you.
How fresh is the New York City feed?
The newest record in NYC Department of Buildings's dataset is dated 2026-09-08, 1 days old at the last check. Anything with nothing newer than 21 days is treated as abandoned and pulled from the product, because two of the seven city datasets originally evaluated had silently stopped updating years earlier while still serving hundreds of thousands of rows.
Which trade gets the most from New York City?
HVAC & electrification on current volume: 3,458 of the last 90 days of filings mention that work. That is the pool before scoring, not the size of a feed.
Is this scraped?
No. NYC Department of Buildings publishes this dataset through a Socrata open-data API, and EarlyIntent queries it the way any member of the public can. Nothing is scraped from a web page, nothing is bought from a broker, and no permit record here is anything other than public record.
