PROGRESS: Sand-pumping operations continued at 52nd Street and 53rd Street on Monday. Access to those beaches is closed. The project is moving towards 51st Street.

Bulldozers are reshaping the sand berm created by the city in the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy to create an entirely new dune structure.

The first two phases of the project (from 42nd Street to 37th Street, then from 42nd Street to 47th Street) are complete.

WHAT’S NEXT: The project will proceed from 52nd Street to 47th Street (mid-May to mid-June), then from 55th to 59th (mid-June to mid-July).
