The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey has given Perini Civil, a division of Tutor Perini, a $192 million contract to rebuild Greenwich Street, which will allow the public to access the 9/11 Memorial by the 10th anniversary. Perini Civil will need to build the infrastructure below Greenwich Street, remove 170,000 cubic yards of soil and put up the underpinning for the subway line that will pass under the street. The U.S. attorney in Brooklyn is currently investigating Perini Civil for alleged fraud in getting contracts that were supposed to go to minority-owned businesses. Tutor Perini, the parent company, has been criticized for cutting corners to meet tight construction timelines.
