BEHIND THE SCENES

The QGIS PLUTO map of NYC that has only the lots in view, with a gradient overlaid, demonstrating which has the most FAR (the darker colors) and the least FAR (the lighter colors).

By linking the BBL (Borough, Block, Lot) numbers from the QGIS PLUTO map of NYC to this Google Sheet that we created, we were able to populate our interactive West Village map with details of the specific business/es that were at each specific building. This shows up in the bubbles when buildings are selected in the tool, providing more context into what a vertical extension project would need to consider.
