The following DOB ECB Violations dataset with the complete violation description. Currently, it is limited to 210 characters, so some sentences are cut midway through.

DOB ECB Violations: https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Housing-Development/DOB-ECB-Violations/6bgk-3dad/data.


I'm a student at Cornell University, studying urban and regional studies. I'm am doing research on how buildings in NYC are being altered. I'm interested in text-mining the complete violation description, as well as understanding the spatial patterns of building alterations comparing neighborhoods to neighborhoods. Specific section laws of interest to me are: 28-210, but I think 28-105 and 28-118 may be relevant to me. I'm research mainly deals with over-occupancy right now. I would prefer the complete dataset, because I can filter it myself and for flexibility in the research, but a limited dataset with just the specific section-laws I asked for is fine too. The data is currently available is perfectly suitable, except violation descriptions are capped 210 characters.
Response
Hi ,

Your request to increase the character limit on the Violation Description in our DOB ECB Violations dataset has been noted. We will review the request and add it to our queue, but please note that if the request is approved, it will not happen very soon.

Instead, I suggest two options:
Look at our DOB Complaints Received instead. We use complaints to track our enforcement inspections, so anything that resulted in an ECB Violation should be in that dataset as well. I think you are interested in what we call "Illegal Conversion" so you should filter the dataset for Complaint Categories 45 and 71.
If you would still rather use ECB data, you can submit a FOIL request for the open data dataset with full Violation Descriptions. You will likely get the data faster that way.
Thank you,
- NYC Department of Buildings (DOB)

More granular crime statistics - would be curious to see crime data similar to how Chicago reports it in this dataset: https://data.cityofchicago.org/Public-Safety/Crimes-2012/hx8q-mf9v

it doesn't have to be granular on the individual report level, but on the district or county level would be interesting, rather than just aggregate crime statistics by year.
Response
To whom it may concern,

Your data request for Granular Crime Data concerns data maintained by the Police Department (NYPD) and determined to be a public data set. The data can currently be found https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Public-Safety/NYPD-7-Major-Felony-Incidents/hyij-8hr7 and is available on the open data portal. This dataset was prioritized for availability because it can be used to increase agency accountability and responsiveness. Additional data points will be provided in the future.

Hi ,

We don’t have the list of all BBLs within BIDs available publicly. The lists found must have been uploaded and maintained directly by the BIDs, not by SBS.

We would like NYC to publish a list of pet registrations each year by zipcode. The format should contain, at least, the zipcode and number of each registered species in that zipcode (e.g. "zip 10001, 100 dogs, 20 cats"). At best, the data would also break out any breed information (such as the types of dogs).

This information is currently maintained by the NYC Dept of Health in their Pet Licensing department.


Our immediate concern is admittedly commercial - we're trying to identify the most pet-friendly areas based on NYC data (registrations vs parkspace, pets-per-capita, etc)

This has a lot of implications for public policy though. For example, the data could be used to identify areas that are underserved by current parkspace dedicated to off-leash dog areas, be correlated by epidemiology researchers against other public health datasets, or a multitude of other uses.
Response
Hi,

At this time, we believe that your nominated data set for cat licenses is not maintained by a New York City agency. As stated by the Department of Health and Hygiene "Licenses are not required for cats and no licenses are issued; and the Department therefore has no data to provide on cats." Dog licenses on the other hand are available on the Open Data portal: https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Health/NYC-Dog-Licensing-Dataset/nu7n-tubp

I am looking for data about rental income (avg unit rent), expenses, and vacancy rates by building. I believe that in assessing the market value of rental buildings the owner provides annual information on building income, expenses, and vacancy rates. This information is partially disclosed in other datasets (the condo valuation files). Is it possible to get this data for all rentals over as long a time series as possible? Ideally I would like the BBL (full tax lot identification to link to PLUTO) and I would like information on the ownership (mainly a way of linking what buildings are owned by same owner, not info about the owner).


I am primarily interested in how rents respond to multiple ownership (are multi owners more efficient), how fast vacancies are found in the city, and general dynamics of rents. I have NO financial interest in this data; purely academic. This data, if released, would be very helpful to all researchers interested in urban rents and vacancy rates, which are typically only available at large geographies and long time horizons (e.g., 5 years at Tract level based on ACS). I believe this data and its study would be beneficial to the city and its aims for more affordable housing.
Response
Hi,

At this time, we believe that your requested dataset is not maintained by a New York City agency. Business ownership would more likely reside with New York State offices, possibly the NYS Department of State. you can view NY State data here: https://data.ny.gov/

Some organizations that operate in the City of New York may not fall under the purview of the NYC open data law. You can find further detail on the law here:

Hello I am looking to have a data set of LEAD Paint violations which were issued in the last 10 months to all Bronx Buildings, and all corrected Lead Paint violations in the last 10 months for all Bronx Buildings. We are working with HPD to try to enlist Bronx Owners to participate in the Free $ LEAD Remediation GRANT program which will provide owners with which resources to remove LEAD paint from their buildings. We will use the data to outreach the owners identified and solicit their participation in the program. If you can assist us in preparing this
data, so that We can import it or email to us, we would very much appreciate it. Thank you.


To identify all bronx buildings which were issued a LEad Paint violation , and all bronx buiildings who corrected any LEAD paint violation
Response
Hello,

This data is already published as part of the Violations Open Dataset: https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Housing-Development/Housing-Maintenance-Code-Violations/wvxf-dwi5/data

To get issued lead violations, filter by OrderNumber 616, 617, 618 and use the ApprovedDate as date filter.
To get all corrected lead violations, filter by OrderNumber 616, 617, 618 and ViolationStatus = close, and use CurrentStatus as date filter

Traffic Impact Analysis - Trip Generation Data - The city has collected a substantial amount of person trip generation data at very high levels of activity density. Such data is both rare and in demand for research and practice as we aim to improve the ways in which all cities estimate traffic impacts and person-trip demand at various establishments. Availability of this data at an establishment level, with information about the location (block group?) of the site, would be a tremendous contribution to the field of traffic impact analysis studies.

This data is summarized in Table 16-2 of Chapter 16, Section 311.1 of the CEQR: Technical Manual available here:

NEW YORK STATE TRANSFER TAX AMOUNT

Response
Hi ,
To find Cooperative Apartment Sales since 2003 (the only sales that would be in ACRIS), first join the ACRIS Real Property Master and ACRIS Real Property Legals datasets by Document ID and Good Through Date. Next select those records from this join where the Doc. Type is either RPTT or RPTT&RET and where Property Type is either SP or SA. The Doc. Type codes are explained in the ACRIS Document Control Codes dataset and the Property Types are explained in the ACRIS Property Types Codes dataset. The NYC Real Property Transfer Tax total consideration will then be the Doc. Amount which is used as the basis for the NYC Real Property Transfer Tax computation. We do not publish the actual tax amount which results from this computation in Open Data.

Permitted child care services - It is very hard to locate child care services in New York City. The only site to look up places is here but, the search is cumbersome: http://www.nyc.gov/html/doh/html/living/childcare-find.shtml

There are in fact two different data sets that would be very useful if they could be released for developers to use. One is the list of group child care centers (behind this: https://a816-healthpsi.nyc.gov/ChildCare/ChildCareList.do) and the other one is the list of "family" or "home-based" child care (behind this: http://it.ocfs.ny.gov/ccfs_facilitysearch/)

Both are accessible through the site of the NYC DoHMH (http://www.nyc.gov/html/doh/html/living/childcare-find.shtml), but the interface is such that one has to search the two datasets separately and also one can only search by zip code.

If this data got liberated, developers could build really cool apps to help parents located child care options!
Response
To whom it may concern:

Your data nomination for Permitted childcare services concerns data maintained by the Department of Health & Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) and determined to be a public data set. This dataset was prioritized for availability because it improves public knowledge of the agency and its operations.

The availability of this data will also be listed in the upcoming update to the NYC open data plan http://www1.nyc.gov/assets/home/downloads/pdf/reports/2015/NYC-Open-Data-Plan-2015.pdf
