New York City has launched a $250 million construction project to boost economic development in New York Harbor.
The project involves digging a new water transmission main – called a siphon – between Staten Island and Brooklyn that will allow for the removal of two existing tunnels that are currently at a much shallower depth.
This will enable the dredging and deepening of the Anchorage Channel, accommodating for increased cargo volumes and larger vessels in future years.
