so what are the biggest construction projects in NYC? There are lots of constructions in New York as it is a very large and busy city. As for the constructions, many people dislike them, but when a building or a road is finished, it is a good feeling to use them. The square where my university is located was under construction for many years. I really hated it, because almost every week the pedestrians’ way was removed. The pavement we could use so far was closed and we had to find another path to approach the building. But finally it was finished, and now it is so beautiful that I love walking there. In New York skyscrapers grow from the ground, and it is incredible how quickly these monstrosities are completed. Insider Monkey recently published an article in which we can find lots of interesting facts about his topic.
