Where are new apartments being built in NYC?
Using Python to analyze construction permit data, I sought to understand where new dwelling units were being built throughout New York City. Specifically, I answered the question: which neighborhood has had the most dwelling units permitted in the past 10 years? While I believed that Hudson Yards, one of New York’s most ambitious master planning developments would result in the most units, Long Island City, Greenpoint, and Williamsburg produced more housing over the same period.
