An area of land being built on.
How to map
Map an outline of the land being built 
and add landuse=construction.
Additional tags
- construction=residential (the kind of construction, usually what the landuse-tag should be when the construction is complete)
- name=*
- operator=The Building Company Ltd
- opening_date=* can be used to indicate the date the feature opened or construction of the feature finished (do not use end_date=*)
Tags on additional objects
- building=construction to map single buildings which are under construction. Usually you would use landuse=construction to tag the whole construction area, which is generally bigger than the building outline(s), and create new, separate objects for the under-construction buildings with this tag.
Nodes
As with many other tag such as building=* or landuse=cemetery mapping such features as areas is highly preferable. But in some cases one may be able to mark location of a construction site but unable to mark its area.
