NYC Open Data

Resident reports and press reports, merged with city film permits. A report is labeled Confirmed when a news story or a same-day permit covers the block, and Resident-reported when it is a neighbor’s post. City permits name the kind of work and the streets where parking is held. They do not name the production. Reports at the guide’s southern boundary, about West 155th to 158th Street, stay on the list and are marked South edge.

Map data © OpenStreetMap contributors. Pins are resident reports whose cross streets match a corner saved on this site. The map does not look up new addresses.
