The building department will know about any outstanding permits in the area.
You can also go to the town clerks office and look up who owns properties in

haven't yet gotten permits.

Aside from that, read the legal notices section of the newspaper for notice
of the agenda of various planning/zoning boards to see what projects are
seeking approval.
