South Shore permit value drops 80% in December
South Shore's building permits fell to $3.8 million in December, down from $18.6 million the month before. The 24 permits issued were less than half November's count. Most were express permits (15) or renovation work (9). No new businesses opened or closed during the month, and the neighborhood logged zero service requests—an unusual quiet spell across the board.
