Search DowntownFigures cover an approximate half-mile area around the center of Downtown (the circle on the map), since Downtown is not an official community area, over the last 12 months, compared against the average Baltimore neighborhood. Source: Open Baltimore (City of Baltimore open data). Baltimore’s permit feed lists issued permits with no status column: a permit counts as active until its expiration date (about six months after issue), so a finished project can still appear, and one whose permit lapsed while work continues will not. Open data updates on a delay, so the most recent records may be incomplete. For general information only — not legal, financial, or real-estate advice.
