We are initiating a study (https://engineering.purdue.edu/STSRG) to examine the impact of constructing protected bike lanes on bike usage in cities, and we believe that your department's data and expertise would greatly contribute to the success of our research.

We have obtained your department's spatial dataset containing the locations of protected bike paths, which is incredibly valuable. However, we lack specific information regarding the completion dates of these bike lanes and when they were made accessible to the public. Having these dates is essential for accurately assessing the effects of the infrastructure projects on bike usage patterns.

We kindly request your assistance in providing us with the completion dates of the protected bike lanes in your jurisdiction. This information will enable us to analyze the changes in bike usage pre and post-implementation, leading to insights that can inform future decision-making processes.

Furthermore, we would greatly appreciate it if you could connect us with someone within your department who can provide guidance and further information on the topic of protected bike lanes. Their expertise would be invaluable to our study, helping us gain a comprehensive understanding of the initiatives and their implications.

We believe that the findings of our research will have significant implications for your Department of Transportation, aiding in the development of effective bike infrastructure policies and fostering sustainable transportation options.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. We sincerely appreciate any assistance you can provide to support our study. We look forward to the possibility of collaboration and the positive impact it can have on enhancing biking infrastructure within your jurisdiction.


How does the introduction of protected bike lanes impact bike usage patterns/ count?

Thank you for your request. The Bike Routes (Bike Lanes) dataset is currently in a format overhaul process, installation date is currently not available; please refer to 2020 dataset archived on the portal for the most recent install dates.
Use "About" and look under 'attachments.

I am looking to get the number of parking tickets issued in each year from 2000-2005. I don't need anything else except the total citations issued in each calendar year. I tried to use the Open Parking and Camera Violation dataset, but was never able to get the API to accept my app token, and therefore was limited to 1000 results.


I am an economist studying the effect that canceling the recycling program from 2002-2004 had on recycling habits for NYC residents. My co-author and I are wanting the total number of parking citations to give a reference for the relative scale of enforcement of parking tickets versus enforcement of recycling infringements.

Good morning NYPD GIS,

My name is *****, a Deputy U.S. Marshal assigned to our Investigations program. Additionally, I am a member of our geospatial team. We have an upcoming enforcement operation slated to take place in your city beginning ***** and we are building out a GIS Dashboard to support the Operation. Among other things included in the Dashboard we are hoping to bring in some state/local crime data from NYC and surrounding areas to display for situational awareness purposes for teams on the ground. Feel free to reach out at any time to discuss further. Of the other 19 participating Cities throughout the US they have provided us with 1 years worth of part crime data down to the actual address as well as shot spotter data. I'd be happy to discuss further.


The dashboard tool will be used by all participating, vetted- federal state and local officers. It is powerful in pre-operational planning, situational awareness and officer safety of all participants.

The data you've requested can be found here:

I need data on all restaurants in New York City. NAME, ADDRESS, Opening date, in business, out of business, etc.


I want to answer several questions, one of them is which area do restaurants open or close early or are more likely to go out of business?

I have many questions I need to answer with the data.

I just need the link, I will write the query myself.

The information you are looking for is not maintained by NYC Open Data as it is not a data request. For information requests (documents, correspondence, etc.) we encourage you to submit a FOIL request via Open Records. If you would like to proceed with a request, please let us know and we will send over next steps.

FOIL stands for the Freedom of Information Law. The New York State Freedom of Information Law requires government agencies to provide records to the public upon request. Government records affect the lives of each New Yorker, and providing easy access to the records makes government work better. The FOIL definition of records is very broad and includes information found in paper and electronic documents and audio and visual recordings. All records are available upon request, unless an exception in FOIL permits an agency to deny access to a record. Learn more about FOIL requests via this Frequently Asked Questions page.

Is there a dataset that has all the houses of worship in NYC?

TY


I am looking to understand the volume/density of houses or worship across the city by neighborhood and borough.

The Department of City Planning (DCP) is not aware of an official, comprehensive list of all houses of worship in NYC. The closest data available is PLUTO or MapPLUTO, which are respectively, tabular and spatial datasets of all tax lots in NYC. PLUTO/MapPLUTO contains a building class field, which is a code describing the major use of structures on the tax lot. You can read more about the building class field in the PLUTO data dictionary.

If you filter the Building Class field for M* (using a wildcard) you will have a list of all tax lots in NYC with a building class code for houses of worship and other religious buildings:

M. CHURCHES, SYNAGOGUES, ETC.
1. Church, Synagogue, Chapel
2. Mission House (Non-Residential)
3. Parsonage, Rectory
4. Convents
9. Miscellaneous

This is not necessarily a comprehensive of list but is the best option available when using public data.

Hi, I submitted the following request for a dataset several weeks ago but have received no response to the request:

Weekly or monthly School-level Student COVID-19 Vaccine data from June 2021 to last available date. There are six files currently available in NYC Open Data containing school-level data on student COVID-19 vaccinations, but we would like to obtain these data at more regular intervals, if possible.

How do I follow up with this request?


We are working on a research proposal related to school-located vaccine programs and are examining questions related to equitable vaccine distribution in non-traditional healthcare settings (e.g., schools).

Thanks again for your patience here. Our contacts at the Department of Education require that you request this data via their Infohub site. They will be able to accommodate your request directly through that channel.

We will close out both of your requests sent to the Open Data HelpDesk, since they are related. Should you have any more questions about this process or would like to request more data, please send us a new inquiry via our contact page.

Thank you,

I'm requesting the complete, up to date dataset of SARS-CoV-2 concentrations measured in NYC Wastewater.


I would like to plot the wastewater values over recent months and compare to previous months. The dataset posted online is two months out of date.

We expect to have an update, including data for March and the first half of April, published to Open Data by the end of this week.

Thank you,

We would like to gain more years of the NYPD Calls for Service dataset. May we have the dataset for the years 2013-2017?

We would also like the same years for the NYPD Complaint Historic dataset.


We are looking to use NYC as a project that investigates how George Floyd's murder impacted 911 calls and crime incidences in major cities of the USA.

Thank you for your inquiry. The NYPD Historic Complaint data goes back to 2006.
The Calls for Service goes back to 2018. Prior years are not readily accessible in our current system and would require a FOIL request. We encourage you to submit a FOIL request via Open Records: https://a860-openrecords.nyc.gov/

FOIL stands for the Freedom of Information Law. The New York State Freedom of Information Law requires government agencies to provide records to the public upon request. Government records affect the lives of each New Yorker, and providing easy access to the records makes government work better. The FOIL definition of records is very broad and includes information found in paper and electronic documents and audio and visual recordings. All records are available upon request, unless an exception in FOIL permits an agency to deny access to a record. Learn more about FOIL requests via this Frequently Asked Questions page.

Department of Housing Preservation and Development (HPD)

Hello,
Do you have a data set that shows absentee landlords? This would be any landlord that does not live in the area of the property they own - i.e. out of state.


Morgan Stanley is providing consulting services to help Neighborhood Housing Services of Brooklyn try to launch its affordable property management program. They want to target absentee landlords as potential customers.

Thank you for your inquiry. The exact information you are looking for is not available as a dataset, but here are some methods you can attempt to get the information you need:

- Registration Information (Multiple Dwelling Registrations & Registration Contacts): These datasets are derived from HPD’s Property Registration Online System and include some level of ownership data. The two should be merged on ‘RegistrationID’ so that you can connect ‘BuildingID’ to the ownership information. You should specify ‘Type’ on the registration contact dataset if you are trying to narrow it down to individual landlords rather than corporate owners. Please note that most properties are owned by LLCs and it is difficult to track which properties one landlord is associated with since each property is registered with a unique LLC.
- Local Law 44 – Development Team dataset only includes a subset of affordable housing, but it also contains ownership data
- PLUTO, managed by the Department of City Planning, contains city-wide data and has an ‘Owner Name’ column.
- ACRIS, managed by the Department of Finance, also has a wide variety of property information
- You can connect the above datasets and information with our Affordable Housing Production by Building dataset. You can use Building ID or BBL to merge the city’s building-related datasets.

I hope this is helpful for your project. If you have any other questions, you can reach out to us at OpenData@hpd.nyc.gov directly.

Thank you,
NYC Department of Housing Preservation and Development

2) I would also like data on the all of Tennis courts in NYC, the number of courts at each park, and the year that they opened.


I am interested in learning about the rise of Tennis' popularity in New York, as well as court availability. A great way to measure that is through memberships and available courts.

Department of Sanitation (DSNY)

I would like to know about the litter baskets on NYC streets. I would like to know which area has the most litter baskets? I also would like to know what are the rules of litter baskets in Manhattan: Should there be one on each street corner?

We appreciate your interest in Open Data! Litter baskets are for pedestrians to dispose of light garbage – and can’t be used for household or commercial garbage. Bundle any loose trash that can blow away, and when discarding dog waste – wrap it first. Find a list of available litter baskets on NYC’s Open Data portal. To report an issue related to litter baskets or to make a new litter basket request, use the links on the following page on the DSNY website: https://www.nyc.gov/assets/dsny/site/services/cleaning/litter-litter-baskets.

The placement of DSNY litter baskets is determined by the volume of pedestrian traffic in a given area. DSNY litter baskets are placed at corners and positioned so as not to block the crosswalk in compliance with Mayoral Executive Order No. 22 of 1995, which establishes the City's policy for sidewalk corner clearances for the purpose of maintaining safe pedestrian passage. Hope this helps!

The amount and location of retails banks in NYC from 2016-2020


Are the amount of retails banks in NYC fairly distributed according to neighborhood.

This request was forwarded to the Department of City Planning (DCP) open data team. We are not aware of a public dataset that is a directory of commercial/retail businesses like banks. There are third party, proprietary datasets for purchase online.

DCP does publish the PLUTO/MapPLUTO dataset which has tax lot level data, including building class based on Dept. of Finance (DOF) records. You could filter the building class field for K7-Banking Facilities with or without parking (see data dictionary - appendix c), which would be the closest field/value we would have available. Note: this is not a comprehensive list of all banking facilities in the City. Alternatively, you may want to search for employer data to locate business addresses for banks.

Hello, I am trying to identify a holistic list of privately owned properties with 1-4 units available to rent in Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx. I referenced the Data Set for Multiple Dwelling Registrations but it does not include the units at each property.


As part of Morgan Stanley's Giving Back initiative it runs a program every year called the Morgan Stanley Strategy Challenge where teams of Morgan Stanley employees assist nonprofit organizations to solve a critical business problem or strategic question. I am assigned to the Team Neighborhood Housing Services of Brooklyn and we are trying to grow its customer base for affordable property management. They are targeting smaller properties with 1-4 units.

Thank you for your inquiry. You can find the number of units in our Buildings Subject to HPD Jurisdiction dataset, which consists of buildings that are required to register their property to HPD. The column 'LegalClassA' indicates the number of apartments in a multiple dwelling. You can find more information on the types of buildings that must register with HPD here.

For affordable housing information, please refer to Affordable Housing Production by Building dataset. You can merge this dataset with the Buildings Subject to HPD Jurisdiction dataset using BuildingID column, which is a unique identifier for our buildings.

The Department of City Planning (DCP) also has other resources that might be useful for your project. For example, PLUTO is an extensive land use and geographic data at the tax lot level and it has granular information on building characteristics. Moreover, DCP's Housing Database contains all NYC Department of Buildings (DOB)-approved housing construction and demolition jobs filed or completed in NYC since January 1, 2010. It includes the three primary construction job types that add or remove residential units: new buildings, major alterations, and demolitions, and can be used to determine the change in legal housing units across time and space

If you have any other questions, please reach out to us at OpenData@hpd.nyc.gov.

To find the generalists, I may need to make a hypothesis that if there are no generalists titles then the way to identify the HR Professional that I was assigned to, or the HR Professional that called me, or the HR Professional that tried to help me in-person is their corresponding title code.

Another option is to just search through the secure site to search them from my desk in the employee search so I can contact them and thank them for their help, but also inform them that I was unable to reach nycaps central and still do not understand why I need to mail my information to the same building I work in.
