BUILDING PERMITS IN THE PRINCIPAL CITIES OF THE
UNITED STATES IN 1 9 2 1 .
INTRODUCTION.
Last year the Bureau of Labor Statistics issued its first annual
report on this subject, collecting information for the year 1920
from cities of 35,000 population and over. In this, the second in
vestigation, the scope of the survey has been extended in an effort to
cover all cities of 25,000 and over in the United States—287 cities
in all.
A report was obtained from each of 265 cities. From some
cities the report was secured by mail direct from the local build
ing inspectors, in other cities by personal visits of agents of the
bureau. In cities in which the work was done by agents the data
were taken either directly from the applications for permits on file
in the building inspector’s office or from record books kept by the
building inspector.
No report was secured for 22 cities above 25,000 in population. A
number of these cities have no building code and no building inspector.
Such cities require no permit to be issued and therefore no record of
the amount of building done is available. In a few cities the work
of building inspection is done in part by the chief of the fire depart
ment. In cities with building codes of this class the fire chief inspects
all buildings erected in the fire zone—that is, in a certain restricted
area in the heart of the business district only. It can be seen, then,
that when any records at all are kept in these cities they are not for
the city as a whole, and hence they have been omitted from the re
port.
The bureau collected information for 1920 not only as to the uses
of the buildings erected but also as to the material of which they were
built. It was found, however, that a clear-cut classification according
to the material used in constructing a building could not be made, for
buildings were reported according to materials used in their outer
walls, and sometimes the walls of the first story of a dwelling house
would be of brick and those of the upper story of wood. In large
office buildings and stores the lower stories would sometimes be bunt
of stone and the upper stories of brick. Then again steel skeleton
buildings sometimes had brick outer walls and sometimes concrete or
stone outer walls. All this made it difficult to classify buildings in
regard to material used.
Nor was it possible to make a very satisfactory classification of
fire-resisting and nonfire-resisting buildings, as a building might be
5

placed under the heading of brick because it had brick outer walls
and yet have a nonfireproof roof and wooden floors and stairways.
The bureau therefore decided to drop that part of the investigation
caffin^Tbr^classification of buildings according to material used, and
to confine the investigation to the proposed use of the building and the
number of families provided for in the dwelling houses erected.
An attempt was made to find out the number of additional families
cared for by alterations and additions to dwellings, such as changing
a one-family dwelling into a two-family dwelling, etc. It was found,
hbivSeve^, that comparatively few of the cities kept such records.
Some cities which had no records of this kind promised to try to ob
tain this information in the future. Undoubtedly quite a number of
additional families have been provided for in this manner. Agents
found in some towns that what had formerly been a one-family
house had been altered so as to house as many as four and five fami
lies, and also that garages and barns with a little alteration had been
made habitable for one or more families. Such conditions were more
usually found in the foreign sections of a factory or mill town.
Previous to the year 1920 the Geological Survey of the United
States Department of the Interior collected and published data con
cerning the number and cost of buildings according to the material
used in their construction. The figures shown below are the total
amounts of money spent in 131 identical cities from which informa
tion was obtained during the years 1914 to 1921, inclusive. From
1914 to 1919, inclusive, the figures are taken from the publications
of the Geological Survey, for 1920 and 1921 from the records of the
Bureau of Labor Statistics.

These figures giving the cost of buildings, as shown by building
permits, can not be interpreted to indicate the relative physical
amount Of building construction, because the costs of both materials
and labor used in such construction have varied from year to year.

It will be seen from the table that 46.1 per cent of the total number
of buildings erected were residential buildings, and that 59.6 per cent
of the total amount of money expended was spent for them.
Of the residential buildings by far the greater number were onefamily houses—being 38.4 per cent of the total number of buildings
and costing 33.3 per cent ot the total cost of all buildings.
The greater number of nonresidential buildings were private
garages, comprising 34.5 per cent of the total number of buildings
and over 60 per cent of the nonresidential buildings.
It will be noticed that $3,967 was the average cost for the con
struction of a one-family house. The average cost of a one-family
house as shown by the 1920 figures was $4,319. The average cost of
a two-family house was $6,700 in 1921 and $7,441 in 1920. This
lowering of average cost was due mainly to a drop in the price of
building material.
A study of this table shows that the increased building in 1921 was
mainly in the building of dwelling houses or domestic outbuildings;
for while the figures show that only 46.1 per cent of the total amount
of buildings erected were for residential purposes, if deduction is also

made of the private garages (34.5 per cent of the total buildings
erected), of sheds (8 per cent), and of stables and bams (3 per cent), it
will leave only 8.4 per cent for all other buildings. When it is con
sidered that the average cost of private garages is only $500, of sheds
$326, and of stables and bams $553, it will be seen that while the
number of these items is large, still they are of minor importance.
The preponderance of dwelling houses over business establishments
is a swinging of the pendulum from the war-time construction period.
During th^ war and for a short time after the building of dwelling
houses was neglected. The overcrowding in cities and the resultant
high rents created a serious condition all over the country. On the
other hand, many large manufacturing concerns expanded; large
factories and mills of an kinds were built. This further crowded the
cities, as it drew large numbers of workingmen to these centers with
out providing them with a place in which to live.
The events of the past year or so have shown that gradually the
country is getting back to normal conditions, the table showing that
comparatively few large factories or commercial buildings were built
during 1921. On the other hand, numbers of people have left the
cities, going back to the small towns, and to the country, but the great
need is still the building of dwelling houses. In most cities 1921 was
a year of constraction of this class of buildings, and from all indica
tions the year 1922 will surpass 1921.
It is interesting to note tnat in spite of industrial depression the
amount of money spent in 1921 for amusement buildings was con
siderably more than the combined amounts spent for churches and
hospitals, and that the amount spent for amusement buildings and
private garages combined was greater than that spent for either
schools, office buildings, stores, or factories.
Table 3 shows the total number of families provided for in 1921 and
the per cent of families provided for by each different kind of dwellings.
There were 227,259 families provided for in the cities covered
by this report. Assuming 5 persons to a family this shows homes
were provided for 1,136,295 people. The population of these cities
as shown by the 1920 census was 36,850,406. Since the normal rate
of increase for cities of 25,000 or over in the United States is 2.7 per
cent, the population of these cities has presumably increased 994,961.
The building of dwellings during 1921, therefore, was somewhat above
the increased population demand and a start was made in reducing
the housing shortage.

When it is considered that these data were collected from cities as
small as 25,000 it may be somewhat startling to discover that almost
one-fourth of the new family accommodations are in apartment
houses. The trend toward apartment houses, which started in the
larger cities, is spreading to the smaller ones. One of the reasons for
this is that very few single dwellings were built to rent and therefore
a family that could not afford to buy a home was almost compelled
to live in an apartment. This, of course, is not the only explana
tion, for the construction of the more expensive apartments shows
that many families prefer apartment dwellings to separate homes.
Table 4 shows the number and cost of each of the different kinds
of buildings for 189 cities from which reports were obtained for both
1920 and 1921, and the percentage of increase or decrease in both
number and cost in 1921 as compared with 1920.

It will be noted that there was a large increase in both number
and cost of all classes of housekeeping dwellings in 1921; the increase
in number ranging from 74.3 per cent for one-family dwellings to
283.6 per cent for one-family and two-family dwellings with stores
combined, and in cost from 62.4 per cent for one-family dwellings to
10
BUILDING PERMITS IN 1021.
249.2 per cent for one-family and two-family dwellings with stores
combined. In every case except multi-family apartments with
stores combined the percentage of increase in cost is less than the
percentage of increase in number. This would tend to show that the
cost of building construction had materially decreased since the
previous year. The reason that the increase in the cost of multi
family apartments was practically the same as the increase in the
number of such buildings, and that the increase in the cost of multi
family apartments with stores combined was greater than the increase
in number, was that these apartments were built to house a larger
number of families than those erected in 1920.
The number of hotels fell off 16 per cent, yet the amount expended
in their construction increased 62.5 per cent, showing that, although
fewer hotels were built in 1921 than in 1920 those that were erected
were much larger. There was an increase of 87.2 per cent in the
total number of residential buildings and an increase of 97.3 per cent
in their aggregate cost.
Of the nonresidential buildings, amusement buildings, churches,
private garages, service stations, institutions, office buildings, schools,
sheds, stables, and stores show an increase in the number erected
ranging from 15.8 per cent in the case of private garages to 641.9 for
stables and barns. Factories, public buildings, and “ all other”
nonresidential buildings show a loss in the number constructed.
The total amount expended was higher for amusement buildings,
churches, schools and libraries, sheds, and stables and barns, and less
for factories, garages, service stations, institutions, office buildings,
public buildings, stores, and “ all other” nonresidential. The total
number of nonresidential buildings increased 30.3 per cent, while
their cost decreased 20.8 per cent.
EXPLANATION OF GENERAL TABLE.
General Table A, which shows detailed information concerning
building operations for 189 cities for the year 1920 and 265 cities for
1921, is divided into three parts. Part 1 relates to new residential
buildings, giving the number and cost of each kind of dwelling and
the number of families provided for by each kind. The information
regarding the number of families provided for was not obtained in a
number of cases in 1920. In 1921, however, this information was
secured from every city shown in the report.
Comparing the work done in each city for the two years it will be
seen that in the vast majority of them many more dwelling houses
were built in 1921 than in 1920. There are of course a few excep
tions to this rule; some cities where there was an exceptional growth
in the past few years due to abnormal war activities show a falling
off in the number of dwelling houses erected. The factories and mills
in such towns are now running on a normal peace-time basis or below
it, and many of the workers drawn from the surrounding country
districts have returned, so these cities are not so much in need of new
homes as some of the others.
In comparing the figures shown in Part 2, the new nonresidential
group; it will be noticed that in almost every city there was a notable
falling off in the building of large factories anti stores in 1921 from
that of the previous year.
EXPLANATION OF GENERAL TABLE.
11
In 1920 both public and private garages were included under one
heading; for 1921 these are reported separately.
“Puolic buildings” and “Public works and utilities,” grouped in
1920, are shown separately for 1921.
Part 3 shows the number and cost of additions, alterations, and
repairs, the grand total of all buildings, both new construction and
repairs, for the years 1920 and 1921, and in addition installation per
mits for 1921.
For 1920 all additions, alterations, and repairs were reported
together, while for 1921 they are divided under the headings of
repairs for housekeeping dwellings, nonhousekeeping dwellings, and
nonresidential buildings.
The number of permits issued for repairs in 1921 was much larger
in most cities than in 1920, but the amount spent per building was
less. This is accounted for partially by the fact that building ma
terial was somewhat cheaper and partially by the fact that many
more minor alterations were made, while few large additions to
factories were erected in 1921. In 1921, 229,896 additions, altera
tions, and repairs were made in the 265 cities at a cost of $274,669,536.
This covers both residential and nonresidential buildings inseparably
combined in the reports from many cities.
The number of installation permits and their construction cost
were obtained in 1921 wherever such permits were issued by the
building inspector. In a number of cities no permits were required
for installations of signs, tanks, etc.; in other cities these permits
were issued by officers other than that of the building inspector. The
number of installation permits reported were 50,777 and the aggregate
cost $17,938,064. In summing up the building operations for the
year 1921 it can be said that the outstanding feature is the erection of
much needed dwelling houses in larger numbers than for many years.
