A new partnership between the city of Boston and a local startup will let residents keep tabs online on the development of city-owned land and chime in with questions and comments.

"You can see all those projects, you can see what's happening in your neighbor­hood, you can have a conversation with us, with your neighbors, about the impact," said Devin Quirk, director of operations for the Department of Neighbor­hood Development. "We want to take the same robust community conversations we're having and make that available to a wider audience by taking it online."

Working with coUrbanize, a Cambridge startup, DND has listed its 87 on­going projects, which include developments the city has selected after a request for proposals process, as well as city-funded public housing.

"As soon as we make a change to any of our properties, it's immediately updated on our website," Quirk said.

Each project has a place to submit feedback on the project, and lists the current status, details on the final proposal, and pictures and renderings.

"As part of the Boston 2030 housing plan, my administration committed to making the development of city-owned land even more transparent," said Mayor Martin J. Walsh.

CoUrbanize's Web platform is designed to increase access to details on new developments. The company was founded out of MIT's School of Architecture and Planning.

"Their mission really aligned with ours," Quirk said. "They want to have a robust conversation about development in neighborhoods."
