Top Projects 2005-2006
Ranking the Biggest-Dollar Efforts
in the Region
This year's ranking of the Top 20 projects started and the
Top 20 projects completed in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut
may signal a promising trend for the region's development
and construction market.
Whereas last year's list had only 11 new project starts valued
above $250 million, this year's list had 18 such starts. The
high-dollar volume starts made for a list that far outpaced
the value of the top completed projects in the same timeframe.
The high value of the project starts underscores a positive
outlook for many contractors and consultants in the region
as large development efforts have gotten under way. And several
major developments - such as projects at the World Trade Center
site in Manhattan and Brooklyn's Atlantic Yards - have yet
to start or hit full stride.
The industry's biggest projects completed in the last year
also show a robust diversity of construction efforts, including
New Jersey's extension of the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail system,
several new power plants in New York City, the 7 World Trade
Center office tower in Manhattan, and various residential
complexes around the region.
Our coverage focuses on the top 20 projects that broke ground
and the top 20 that reached substantial completion over the
last year - a list that includes more than $20 billion worth
of new buildings and major infrastructure work. See profiles
of the top-ranked projects on the pages that follow.
