Original Note:
This is not inflation-adjusted, but inflation would not account for the changes in the data. Prices have increased about 26% since 2017, the beginning of the graph. But the graph shows construction spending increasing by about 300% over that same period. https://data.bls.gov/cgi-bin/cpicalc.pl?cost1=1&year1=201701&year2=202405 https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/TLMFGCONS
