Filed construction activity

$2,929,500 in permitted construction work filed since 2016 (26 filings with a declared cost) — a rough measure of how actively the owner maintains the building. Permit costs cover filed construction work only — they do not capture routine maintenance or repairs done without a permit.

Rent-stabilization signals
