The $50 million multi-year improvement project began in 2021 and is expected to be completed in fall 2025. However, many of the local businesses say they are suffering as a result of the construction.
Businesses along a main artery in The Heights said their sales have dropped as construction to modernize the roads has continued.
Phi Nguyen, owner of The Waffle Bus, said construction started in front of his restaurant on Shepherd and 19th Street in February 2023. Already, he has noticed a 50% drop in sales."The traffic, the cones, the dust..." Nguyen said. "There are days I've been trying to come to my restaurant... we have extra parking in the back, and I have trouble getting to it. I have to drive past the restaurant five blocks, make a U-turn, come back, and make a circle just to get here.
He said he fears people think parking was already limited enough in The Heights prior to construction and will just go elsewhere.
