BLD 718 Build

DOB and construction intelligence

See where New York City is building.

Search DOB filings, permits, projects, applicants, contractors, owners, expeditors, and development activity through one organized construction-intelligence platform.

02 · Understand companies and properties

Know who is behind the filing.

Review company profiles, property timelines, filing histories, project locations, and connected participants. Profiles for applicants of record, general contractors, and expeditors are built from the filings themselves.

  • Filing volume and work types by company
  • Property timelines with filings in sequence
  • Owners and developers they file for
  • Recent filings with current status

03 · Find and monitor opportunities

Find the work, then watch it move.

Create targeted lists, identify active markets, save searches, and monitor properties or companies. Plot filings and permits geographically to see where activity is concentrating, and turn any area into a saved search.

  • Clusters showing where activity concentrates
  • Draw an area and save it as a search
  • Monitor followed properties and companies
  • Build targeted prospect lists

04 · Saved searches, alerts, and lists

Turn a search into a working pipeline.

The searches you run most become saved searches, the records you care about become alerts, and the companies and sites worth chasing become lists your team can work from.

Saved searches and project alerts

Save any search and get told when something new matches it — a filing on a followed property, a permit issued to a followed contractor, or a job that meets the criteria you set.

Prospect and opportunity lists

Build lists from any result — jobs, contractors, applicants, owners — annotate them, work through them, and export them into whatever your team already uses.

06 · Who uses 718 Build

Three ways teams put it to work.

The same filing record answers a different question depending on who is asking it.

Contractors and consultants

Find active projects, review property and company histories, and qualify the parties before you take the meeting.

ExampleAlteration jobs filed in your borough in the last 30 days, filtered to the owners you already work with.

Suppliers and rental companies

Reach projects at the point they are permitted, and see which sites are about to mobilize near you.

ExamplePermits issued this week on jobs above your minimum size, with the general contractor on each.

Owners, developers, and real estate professionals

Track comparable projects, the teams behind them, and the construction signal underneath a block or an owner.

ExampleWho filed the last five new buildings in a submarket, and which expeditors handled them.

07 · Connected products

718 Build does not stop at the filing.

A contractor on a permit is the same company that files abatement work. The owner on a job is the same entity that holds the deed. With 718 Abate or 718 Property on your subscription, those records open from inside 718 Build.

Find the projects, companies, and development signals that matter to your business.
