Nyack’s Streetscape Project began officially when Carol Fleischman, Streetscape Committee Chairwoman, and Steven Knowlton, Village Trustee, used a sledgehammer to literally break ground Saturday, June 4th on the corner of Main St. & Franklin St.
Monday, June 13th A-Tech Concrete Company, contractors for the project, will begin to remove and replace sidewalks. Since June 6th, they have been on-site measuring and marking the various areas for the work ahead.
The project will be done in 5 sections along Main St. from Franklin to Broadway in order to maintain business as usual and keep disruption at a minimum. Work hours are scheduled from 7:30am until 3:30pm Mondays thru Fridays.
Various merchants and restaurants will be staging events throughout the project in keeping with the Streetscape, such as Streetscape Savings, Demolition Drinks…
