Several Tribeca streets are slated for capital reconstruction that will improve and update local infrastructure. The city Department of Design and Construction (DDC) began the Harrison Street Reconstruction project in early November 2008, starting with excavation on the north side of Leonard Street between West Broadway and Hudson Street. The project includes utility upgrades including water and sewer mains, catch basins, and electric, cable, and telecommunications. Curbs, sidewalks, and roadway restoration will also be done, including repaving with original cobblestones on historic streets. Under the contract (No. HWMWTCA7A), Greenwich from Hubert to Canal Streets, and Harrison from Hudson to West Street also will be reconstructed starting in 2009. The entire project is expected to conclude in spring 2010.
