Great writeup! I work with NYC open data but did not know about this dataset!

> Garages make up one-fifth of NYC buildings

I'm quite surprised by this.

Yes, something seems off. Wonder if "Parking" got lumped into "Garage"?

Type of Building. List of values: 1000 = Parking 1001 = Gas Station Canopy 1002 = Storage Tank 1003 = Placeholder (triangle for permitted bldg) 1004 = Auxiliary Structure (non-addressable, not garage) 1005 = Temporary Structure (e.g. construction trailer) 1006 = Cantilevered Building 2100 = Building 2110 = Skybridge 5100 = Building Under Construction 5110 = Garage

I wonder if this is in the parts of the outer boroughs where detached houses are the norm?

Article does some nutzo thing where it adds ?ref=beautifulpublicdata.com to outgoing links.
