From renovated libraries to urgent coastal resiliency initiatives, New York City is committed to modernizing delivery of public projects for residents and communities. DDC designs and builds essential public buildings and infrastructure through a transparent process that respects taxpayers, the law, and our partners.

To continue improving, we need Albany to pass key State legislation in 2024 that expands our capacity to build better. With these common-sense proposals, New York City would finish public projects more efficiently and less expensively – and create good-paying construction jobs in the process.
