Old Main Corridor Project is Underway!

The Old Main Corridor project is intended to enhance 4th Avenue between 8th Street and Hal Greer Boulevard, and the first phase of construction is underway between 8th and 10th streets. This very first phase of the project involves replacement of sidewalks, construction of two pedestrian plazas, all new street lighting similar to the Pullman Square area and the repaving of 4th Avenue.

I'm posting these links to the http://www.createhuntington.com/ website for all who want to know the history and details of the project. Click on these links to learn about:
