Tutor Perini Corp. has been awarded a $2.95-billion design-build contract by New York City to construct a new jail in Brooklyn, one of four new borough-based facilities intended to replace the crisis-ridden Riker's Island detention facility in the Bronx.
The city Dept. of Design and Construction (DDC) confirmed the total replacement program is worth $8.9 billion and is still in procurement. "It is the first main contract so far," an agency spokesperson says.
