DOB Permit Issuance

The Department of Buildings (DOB) issues permits for construction and demolition activities in the City of New York. The construction industry must submit an application to DOB with details of the construction job they would like to complete. The primary types of application, aka job type, are: New Building, Demolition, and Alterations Type 1, 2, and 3. Each job type can have multiple work types, such as general construction, boiler, elevator, and plumbing. Each work type will receive a separate permit. (See the DOB Job Application Filings dataset for information about each job application.) Each row/record in this dataset represents the life cycle of one permit for one work type. The dataset is updated daily with new records, and each existing record will be updated as the permit application moves through the approval process to reflect the latest status of the application. <b> Note: This dataset only includes permits issued in the Buildings Information System (BIS), most current permits are now issued in DOB NOW -- see the <a href ="https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Housing-Development/DOB-NOW-Build-Approved-Permits/rbx6-tga4/about_data">DOB NOW: Build – Approved Permits</a> dataset.</b>

纽约市建筑署（Department of Buildings, DOB）负责为纽约市范围内的建筑及拆除活动核发建设许可。建筑行业从业主体需向建筑署提交申请，载明拟实施的建筑工程相关详情。主要的申请类型（亦称工程类型）包括：新建工程、拆除工程，以及1类、2类、3类改造工程。每一类工程类型均可对应多种作业类型，例如通用建筑施工、锅炉作业、电梯安装及给排水工程等。每种作业类型将单独核发一份许可。（如需了解每份工程申请的详细信息，请参阅DOB工程申请备案数据集。）

本数据集的每条记录均代表某一作业类型对应许可的完整生命周期。该数据集每日更新，既会新增记录，也会随许可申请的审批流程推进更新现有记录，以反映申请的最新状态。

<b>注：本数据集仅涵盖建筑信息系统（Buildings Information System, BIS）核发的许可，当前多数新许可已通过DOB NOW平台核发——请参阅<a href="https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Housing-Development/DOB-NOW-Build-Approved-Permits/rbx6-tga4/about_data">DOB NOW：建筑核准许可</a>数据集。</b>
