New Map Shows What's Being Built in Montgomery County

In a new online feature from the Montgomery County Planning Department, residents can view the location and details of upcoming development projects in their neighborhood through an online map application.

Released on Oct. 7, the Development Finder displays both approved construction projects as well as those still pending approval. Site users can access detailed project information by entering either an address or town name into the search bar.

Included in the map’s detailed view are the names of a project’s owners, architects, engineers, and development contact. This could be instrumental for community members to take an active role in Montgomery County’s infrastructural future.

The information on the site will be automatically updated by the Planning Department, making it a timely resource for residents interested in current building projects.
