Early-warning signals
NHPD LIHTC statuses and dates are used to identify buildings worth researching. They are not automatically the controlling legal expiration of every affordability restriction affecting a property.
Preservation landscape
See the pattern without losing the building.
Affordable Forever uses one shared property-data engine for the national map, NYC enrichment and legislative geography. That matters: the tenant, organizer and policymaker should be looking at the same underlying building record, not three maps that disagree.

The old version of this page carried a second map. We retired it deliberately. The strongest platform has one source of truth and several interfaces built for different decisions.

Total property units
Unit counts describe the scale of properties represented in the data. They are not automatically a verified count of units that remain regulated today.
NYC enrichment
Owner type, 4%/9% credit signals and identified active federal subsidy overlaps help prioritize research. Unknown does not mean unsafe; it means more work is needed.
Verified facts come later
A building becomes legally understood when the governing agreements, recorded restrictions, contracts and current tenant protections are actually reviewed.
The point of the landscape is not to predict displacement. It is to make unanswered preservation questions visible early enough that tenants, organizers and public officials still have choices.
