What is being filed, launched and sold in New York City new development, compiled quarterly from public reports and free to cite.
NYC new developments in 2026, tracked every quarter for developers, sponsors, brokerages and architecture firms: permit filings across the five boroughs, Manhattan new development contracts and the $10M-plus segment, and the pace of new launches. Every figure links to its source. We refresh it each quarter; cite it as 'TERAMOK New York new development monitor, Q2 2026'. New York projects usually connect published pricing, documented results and the New York new development monitor.
16,546 planned residential and hotel units. Queens led with 337 filings, Brooklyn 306.
The pipeline is outer-borough heavy. Those launches compete on story and film, not on a Manhattan address.
Half of new development dollar volume now comes from $10M-plus units, where the marketing is judged as the building.
Contracts down 14% year over year; volume above the $1.4B ten-year average.
Fewer, larger deals: every qualified buyer is worth more, and every lost one costs more.
Launches are running at about half the usual second-quarter pace. The buildings that do launch get the attention, if they arrive ready.

Our reading of the quarter for developers and the firms that serve them.
Queens led permit filings with 337 and Brooklyn followed with 306 of 903. Most of the next cycle's launches will not have a Manhattan address to lean on.
38 contracts at $10M and above against 22 a year earlier, about half of new development dollar volume. Luxury launches compete for a small, well-served buyer pool.
160 units launched in Manhattan, down 37% and about half the usual second-quarter pace. A building that launches ready has less competition for buyers and brokers.
311 contracts, down 14%, but $1.5B in volume against a $1.4B ten-year average. Each qualified buyer is worth more than in an average quarter.
3,477 Manhattan contracts across the market, up 5%, a $1.3M median, up 7%, and 7,182 active listings, the lowest second-quarter inventory in eight years.
Start brand and film before CPS-1, build the interest list during market testing, and plan broker previews for the day the offering plan is accepted.
