Grand Boulevard permit value jumps to $6.4 million
Grand Boulevard saw $6.4 million in permitted construction in July, up nearly fivefold from June's $1.1 million. The 26 permits included 13 through the express program and eight for renovation or alteration work. One new construction permit was filed. No new businesses opened, none closed, and the neighborhood logged zero service requests for the month.
2025-07
Grand Boulevard permit dollars drop 76% to $1.76M
Grand Boulevard pulled 25 permits in July worth $1.76 million, down sharply from June's $7.4 million. Most of the activity came through the express program — 17 of the 25 permits — with another five for renovations or alterations. The drop suggests last month's bigger-ticket projects didn't repeat. No new business licenses, no 311 requests logged for the period.
