Our Pittsburgh data comes from the city's PLI permit dataset published on the Western Pennsylvania Regional Data Center. Each record carries the permit type and work type, issue date, parcel number, a full address with ZIP, and the total project value. The contractor is named on about half of permits and a description of the work appears on about two-thirds. In September 2026 the data center closed its API to automated access, so this market is a historical archive of permits from July 2025 through August 2026 and is not currently being updated.
This is a historical archive of Pittsburgh permit records through August 2026 — a complete snapshot you can search anytime. We are not currently adding new permits for this market.
