PROJECT OVERVIEW
Construction of new bus stops (bus bulbs) along West 34th Street in Midtown Manhattan, one of the city's busiest corridors. Gryphon led the work from bidding and subcontractor procurement through to one hundred percent completion.

Excavation
Concrete and asphalt
Underground utilities
Storm piping
