Every weekday morning, in your inbox
The top Chicago permit filings, graded A+ / A / B by project size, owner type, and how fresh the filing is. Owner, address, value, GC if named, trade scope — all in one email.

Search Chicago by trade, neighborhood, value, stage
Every Chicago permit we've ranked, plus history. Filter by trade, by the Loop vs West Loop vs River North, by project size, by stage. Export to CSV. Use it to research a block, build a focused project list, or verify whether a project team is already forming.
03 — Matched to Your Scope
Only the Chicago leads that fit your work
Tell us your trades, the neighborhoods you bid, and your job-size sweet spot once. We keep the noise out so you can stay on the job — not on data.cityofchicago.org.

Who to call, surfaced in the lead
For pre-issuance filings: the property owner. For issued permits: the GC + license + the architect of record. Skip the “who's the GC on this” phone tree.
