Here's a nifty new tool: a Google Maps mashup of buildings permits in the five boroughs, brought to us by The New York Times. The mashup integrates data from the Department of Buildings to highlight upcoming new construction, major renovations, and demolitions. As of this writing, it's updated through the end of May—perhaps they'll get closer to realtime as this baby comes out of beta.
