2024-06
Irving Park permit value doubles to $8.7 million
Permit value in Irving Park jumped 113 percent in June, hitting $8.7 million even as the count dipped slightly to 47. Most of that came through express permits (28 of them), which typically mean smaller interior jobs that don't require a full review. Nine renovation permits and four new construction pulls rounded out the activity. No new business licenses landed this month, and the 311 complaint tally didn't register—either a data gap or an improbably quiet stretch for service requests.
2025-06
Irving Park permit value drops 88% in June
Permit value in Irving Park fell from $34.9 million in May to $4.2 million in June, an 88% drop that suggests last month's big figure came from a large project or two. The number of permits barely budged—47 in June versus 49 in May—with express permits still leading at 26. Overall 311 requests dropped 15%, though rodent complaints topped the list at 146. Crime rose 9% to 196 incidents, but violent offenses fell 16% to 51. No new businesses registered and no old ones closed.
