An independent ledger · Data retrieved September 25, 2026

The City has named 120 sites on public land for new homes.

For each one: what the zoning allows, what the community board formally asked for, and what stands in the way. Every figure links to its public source, and the method is open.

Records on the City's tracker: 120
Homes current zoning allows on the 102 sites placed on tax lots, each tax lot counted once: 37,474–49,106
The 50,970 homes the tracker lists, against the figures for current zoning: 30,103 fit within the high estimate for current zoning on their lots
12,466 are on 6 sites where current zoning allows no homes, so they need a rezoning or other land-use approval
5,049 are above the high estimate on 19 sites: they would take smaller homes than assumed here, more land or different zoning
1,049 are above it on 9 sites placed only by the tracker's map point, where the project's land may be more than the lot shown
403 are the second listing of 2 projects the tracker lists twice
1,900 are on 6 records that could not be placed on a tax lot
Examined in depth: 12 sites

Key map. Each pink square is a site; numbered squares are examined in depth. Borough boundaries: DCP.

Floor area is the higher zoning maximum where the district has one (for qualifying affordable or senior housing, or in low-density districts a qualifying residential site), else the standard maximum. Homes are rounded outward to the nearest 5, never past the dwelling unit limit. An asterisk marks a district whose rules are not yet verified against the Zoning Resolution. Method.

Sites not placed on a tax lot

Listed on the City's tracker, but not resolved to a tax lot in public data. Each has a reason.

Site	Borough	Reason
East Harlem Sites / B Open Door	Manhattan	The tracker places this project at 223 East 125th Street, a 2,698 sq ft City-owned lot on a block where several City-owned lots are set aside for the East 125th Street development. None of the City documents checked lists this project's tax lots, so no site is shown.
East Harlem Sites / B-Central	Manhattan	The tracker places this project at 223 East 125th Street, a 2,698 sq ft City-owned lot on a block where several City-owned lots are set aside for the East 125th Street development. None of the City documents checked lists this project's tax lots, so no site is shown.
Resilient Edgemere Community Initiative - infill sites	Queens	The tracker's map point for Edgemere's low-density infill program falls on a lot approved for the separate multi-family sites. City documents describe the infill program as about 117 City-owned lots to be held by a community land trust, but none of the City documents checked lists which lots carry the tracker's 120 homes.
Stapleton B1	Staten Island	The tracker's coordinates are the location the City's tax lot data still list for Block 487, Lot 100, a point now in the water about 340 feet off the shoreline and inside no current tax lot. City documents describe the site only as Site B1, part of Lot 100, which was split into new tax lots in November 2025; none of the City documents checked names the current lot. On City Planning's zoning map, Subarea B1 lies mostly on Block 487, Lot 11, but none of the City documents checked confirms that lot as the site.
Stapleton Beacon	Staten Island	The tracker's coordinates are the location the City's tax lot data still list for Block 487, Lot 100, a point now in the water about 340 feet off the shoreline and inside no current tax lot. HPD describes the site as part of Lot 100, about 108,000 sq ft; Lot 100 was split into new tax lots in November 2025, and none of the City documents checked names the current lot. On City Planning's zoning map, the site's subarea falls partly on Lot 12 and partly on Lot 212, and neither lot, nor the two together, matches HPD's 108,000 sq ft.
Stapleton B4/B5	—	The tracker's point is on Front Street, inside no tax lot. City documents describe the site as Parcels B4 and B5 of Block 487, part of Lot 100, about 5.5 acres. Lot 100 was split into new tax lots in November 2025, and none of the City documents checked names the current lot. On City Planning's zoning map, Subareas B4 and B5 lie mostly on Block 487, Lot 4 (243,261 sq ft), but none of the City documents checked confirms that lot as the site.
