## Questions about commercial projects

### Why do some projects have no subtype?

Boardwalk records only what the public filing states. When a filing doesn't say what kind, the project has no subtype.

### Can I get an Alert for new commercial projects?

Yes, a Boardwalk Alert emails you new commercial projects daily, weekly, or monthly, for the places you pick.
