2 years ago As of May the 4th this issue seems have been addressed. The API endpoints are back to their previous behavior:
- The "building" endpoint at https://data.cityofnewyork.us/resource/qb5r-6dgf.json is back to returning footprints
- The "building_p" endpoint at https://data.cityofnewyork.us/resource/7w4b-tj9d.json is back to returning center points
As of today (2022 April 26) it looks like the two "Building Footprints" API endpoints have traded places and no longer match their documentation. (See https://data.cityofnewyork.us/Housing-Development/Building-Footprints/nqwf-w8eh ).
The "building" endpoint at https://data.cityofnewyork.us/resource/qb5r-6dgf.json previously returned building footprint polygons but is now only returning center points.,
The "building_p" endpoint at https://data.cityofnewyork.us/resource/7w4b-tj9d.json previously returned center points but is now returning the footprint polygons.
