NYC Residential Housing Permits
Residential
Housing Permits started out strong in the first three months of 2013,
keeping pace with the total permits issued in the first three months of
2012. The first three months of 2013 recorded a total of 2,556 permits
compared to 2,233 permits in
the first three months of last year. In 2013, Brooklyn has been the
major source of residential activity, while in 2012 Manhattan recorded
the most permits.
Based on the first quarter, it appears that permits and new housing development are leveling off in 2013. Since 2004, permits have climbed steadily, reaching a high point of 33,170 in 2008, the peak of economic activity.
The financial crisis of 2009 caused a significant drop in permit activity to 5,953 in that year. Since then, permits have slowly picked up as the economy progresses and returns back to normal. Nevertheless the level of new housing permits last year are well below what our city needs to meet the housing demand of our steadily rising population which is expected to reach 9 million by 2030.
