The City of New Rochelle celebrated the completion of the North Avenue Streetscape Project on Thursday, June 9, 2011 at the newly-redesigned Boulevard Plaza, at the corner of North Avenue and The Boulevard.

Funded primarily by the federal government, this three-phase multi-year infrastructure improvement project has enhanced a significant portion of the City’s key north-south corridor with new sidewalks, trees, lighting and pavers as well as resurfacing and restriping. Along with upgrading the appearance of the roadway, traffic flow and safety have improved throughout the length of the project, from Eastchester Road to Burling Lane.

“The condition and efficiency of North Avenue impacts the daily lives of thousands of residents,” said New Rochelle Mayor Noam Bramson. “Through this unprecedented multi-year effort, we have achieved a dramatic positive transformation in North Avenue's appearance, while also enhancing traffic flow wherever practically possibly. What's more, these improvements have been funded by outside grants, at no expense to local property taxpayers. We still need to encourage private investment along the North Avenue corridor, and so our work is far from done; but I thank all those who labored with patience and persistence to achieve this notable milestone, and I am very pleased with the results of this project."
