Each monthly issue of the Construction Reporter includes figures on the number of new houses authorized by building permits, the amount of new office and retail space, and the estimated cost of all work authorized by permits. Construction activity extends to work on new buildings, as well as renovations and repairs to existing structures. Each monthly issue also has detail on the number of housing units lost to demolitions in each county. An annual issue, which is published late in the spring, has year-end totals on all these indicators for each of the State s 566 municipalities. Beginning with the January 2001 Data issue, highlights of construction activity in the Construction Reporter will be available at this web site.
Monthly reports are available on a subscription basis .
Copies of the Construction Reporter also are available at area depository libraries .
