Tutor Perini Corporation, a civil, building and specialty construction company, announced today that it has been awarded a contract by the New York City Department of Design and Construction (DDC) valued at approximately $2.95 billion for the Design-Build Program for the NYC Borough-Based Jails System, Brooklyn Facility.
Upon receipt of a Notice to Proceed, which is expected in June 2023, design work will commence.
“We are pleased to be selected and awarded this major design-build contract by the New York City DDC and look forward to partnering with them to deliver a new state-of-the-art facility that will enable DDC’s historic plan to close Rikers Island and replace it with a smaller network of safer modern jails,” said Ronald Tutor, Tutor Perini’s chairman and chief executive officer.
