The good news is the streets and sidewalks around the Sullivan square will look great when finished.
And the bad news has already hit some of the businesses around the square.
Starting Wednesday, May 4 the north and west sides of the square are closed.
On Thursday, May 5 the east and south sides of the square are being closed for more extensive construction.
As the city’s complete resurfacing project continues, side street closings started May 3 and extend through Thursday, May 5.
