Cambridge building permits, September 28–October 4, 2026

Public notice. Cambridge’s public data portal lists 13 building permits with an issue date from September 28, 2026, through October 4, 2026.

Building use on the portal rows: Multi Family (3 or more dwelling units) (5), Commercial / Mixed Use (4), One or Two Family Dwelling (3), Townhouse (1). Construction type: Wood (Type (IV/V) (5), Steel/Concrete, Non-Combustible (Type I/II) (4), Masonry / Wood (Type III) (4). Current property use: Multi-Family (3 units or greater) (5), One-Family (2), Townhouse (1), Two-Family (1).

Thirteen issued permits is a small absolute number for a dense Middlesex County city — but the mix is telling. Multi-family and commercial/mixed-use rows sit beside one- and two-family work. Portal descriptions for the week include laboratory support renovations, tenant-space conversions, bathroom and unit remodels, and exterior deck/patio repairs. This page does not reprint street addresses.

Cambridge readers should treat the portal as the system of record for unit-level detail. Filed Nearby’s job here is the week count, the use mix, and the reminder that even a quiet week still moves lab, housing, and small commercial interiors.
