New York YIMBY’s 2023 Fourth-Quarter Construction Report Sets Record for New Building Filings
New construction permit numbers are in for the fourth quarter of 2023, and the figures are encouraging. From October through December, New York’s developers filed permits for 1,521 new buildings, the highest quarterly tally for the 2020s decade so far. The figure represents a 54-percent increase from the third-quarter permit count of 986. The total filed for floor area also increased significantly, rising from 18.3 million square feet in Q3 to 23.1 million square feet in Q4 (a 26-percent increase), as did the number of filed for residential and hotel units, which grew from 14,010 in Q3 to 16,396 in Q4 (a 17-percent increase). The charts and analyses below offer a detailed breakdown of the fourth quarter’s permit filings.
