Greater Grand Crossing permit value drops by half
Greater Grand Crossing pulled 37 permits in October, down from 42 the month before, but the real shift was in dollar value—$755k versus $1.5 million, a 51% drop. Thirty of those permits came through the express program, a streamlined track for smaller jobs. Three renovation permits and a single new construction permit rounded out the activity. No new businesses opened, no 311 requests logged, and the neighborhood had a quiet month otherwise.
