New York City’s Capital Program
Our city’s infrastructure – its roads, sewers, parks and schools – is funded and managed through the city’s capital program. We use NYC Open Data to through explore the program’s four phases: Strategy, Budget, Commitments and Projects.
* In 2024, the Mayor’s Office changed the structure of many capital budget datasets. To see the pre-2024 capital program site, go here.
Strategy
The Mayor’s Office of Management & Budget (OMB) updates a 10-Year Strategy document every 2 years, organizing the plan by project types and categories.
Budget
The Mayor submits an Executive Capital Budget for approval by the City Council every year. This breaks the strategy into budget lines that will fund specific projects.
Commitments
OMB publishes a Capital Commitment Plan three times a year that schedules agency capital spending. These commitments make it possible for agencies to fund projects.
Capital Projects
Our capital project profiles combine over a dozen datasets from four different city agencies.
Our map uses data from Capital Projects Database (CPDB) - Projects (Polygons), Capital Projects Database (CPDB) - Projects (Points) datasets.
