Of those, 9,135 are single-family homes and 217 are multi-family units.
Construction on seventy one single-family homes in Queens has been completed, according to Build it Back data that was last updated at the end of November. Construction has begun on another 289.
Staten Island has had the most homes completed with 103. Brooklyn has had 47.
Queens has received the highest number of reimbursement checks for single-family homes with 531.
Queens has two multi-family homes currently in construction, according to the data.
During the last few months, the city has repeatedly touted the success of the Build it Back program, saying that it has made progress ever since the de Blasio administration worked to overhaul it earlier this year.
In October the administration set a goal of 1,000 construction starts and 1,500 reimbursement checks by December 31.
According to the data, the city has hit 885 construction starts at 1,552 checks.
