Those pins are are all sites where development/construction has been officially halted by the Department of Buildings.
There are 362 of them right now, though there are probably more that have not been officially deemed 'stalled'. Think of all the pre-construction deposits! All of the workers who are out of a gig! Of all the loose lumber and rebar and glass open for stealing! Stalled construction sites make for an ugly landscape, dangerous conditions, and bad mojo. Lets hope this recession picks up and peaces out soon. The Times gives us a nifty map and names all the locations, in case you're looking to take a tour.
