Source:  TRD  analysis of initial new building (NB) permits issued between April 1, 2018 and March, 31, 2019, by the NYC Dept. of Buildings. New building construction was ranked by square footage. The data includes work permitted by the DOB and excludes work approved by other agencies. It only includes work where the general contractor is specifically listed on the DOB permit — renewals were excluded. All firms were contacted, but not all participated.
