Pick a territory and see the buildings there, each linked to its record.
Your list also has the ones due in the next 60 days.
liftdue isn't part of any government agency, and it isn't service or dispatch software (where it fits next to service software). It says nothing about who maintains an elevator today: TDLR's file and DOB's elevator compliance data have no field for that.
One row per building, each linked to its record. Here's a real one from the Austin sample.

In Texas: elevators and escalators more than 60 days past their inspection date, up to a year, and the ones due in the next 60 days. In New York City: active elevators with no current-year test report on file, and open DOB violations.
A 25-mile radius around a Texas ZIP, or one NYC borough. TDLR says its county field isn't kept up to date, so liftdue places buildings by street address instead.
Every number is a count from these records. Some addresses can't be placed on a map yet, so radius counts can run low.

Texas law requires building owners to have each elevator inspected once a year by a registered inspector and to file the report with TDLR within 30 days.
TDLR's late fee starts on the 61st day after the inspection, and it still takes late reports after that. So liftdue waits until a unit is more than 60 days past its due date before listing it.
Even then it can be paperwork: the inspection may have happened and the report not be processed yet. It says nothing about the elevator itself. Check the linked record before you act on it.
We leave out units more than a year past their date. A record that old may be for equipment that was replaced or removed.
In New York City, a DOB Failure to Correct violation means the form saying the defects were fixed wasn't filed in time. On its own it doesn't mean the defects are still there.

You can, it's public and it's the right tool for one building. It just has no radius or due-date filter. We place buildings on a map by street address so your radius works, list a unit only once it's more than 60 days past its date, and set aside units where the TDLR records we've checked show a newer inspection.
Yes, all five boroughs, one borough per territory. Along with active elevators that have no Category 1 report on file yet this year, we list open DOB Failure to File and Failure to Correct violations. NYC rows show the owner from city property records when we can match one.
The names are public record. TDLR's file has an owner name and a contact name for most buildings, and HPD lists the registered owner and managing agent. We show names and roles, not phone numbers or emails. How you reach out is up to you. If you email, US commercial email law (CAN-SPAM) covers business email too.
