Among T&D’s first major projects was the construction of four steel cofferdams and the erection of the main piers of the Triborough Bridge. In February of 1935 several months after the completion of this project, T&D was awarded the contract to concrete pave the long viaduct between the Hells Gate Bridge and the tollbooths. This project was completed in record time with T&D receiving an early completion bonus for this accomplishment and the bridge was ready for traffic by July 4th, 1935, and was officially dedicated and opened by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Tully Construction continues this tradition today as it has received early completion bonuses on 5 out 6 New York State projects it has done with the bonus system.

Tully and DiNapoli continued as one of the major U.S. contractors in the 1950's and 1960's. They were involved in the construction of such projects as: 1964-65 World’s Fair, Grand Central Parkway, Garden State Parkway, New Jersey Turnpike, Cross Bronx Expressway, Southern State Parkway, Long Island Expressway, Idlewild/Kennedy Airport, LaGuardia Airport, Triborough Bridge, Whitestone Bridge and the foundation for the World Trade Center.

In 1971 as a second generation of principals evolved, Kenneth Tully and his four brothers formed Willets Point Contracting Corporation (Willets Point) to replace Tully and DiNapoli and Columbia Asphalt (the asphalt paving subsidiary of Tully and DiNapoli). As the third generation emerged, Tully Construction Co., Inc. and its affiliated companies evolved.

For 18 years, from 1971 to 1989, Willets Point Contracting Corp. was the vehicle through which the Tully family completed work for: The City of New York, Department of Transportation and Department of Sanitation, State of New York, Department of Transportation, Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority. Willets Point Contracting worked in the New York Metropolitan area almost exclusively, pouring more than 750,000 cubic yards of concrete and placing over 1,000,000 tons of asphalt in the New York City Metropolitan area. As the 1980’s came to an end it was decided to expand into other areas while still continuing the successes of the past. Willets Point began to bid on solid waste management projects for several cities and towns on Long Island and New Jersey. The first such projects were for the Town of Oyster Bay on Long Island and the Bergen County Utilities Authority, in New Jersey. On these two project alone Willets Point disposed of close to 2,000,000 tons of municipal solid waste.

Tully Construction started operating in 1988 as a Joint Venture partner with Willets Point Contracting performing 3 major road construction jobs, and the operation of the transfer station for Bergen County. In 1990, Tully Construction Co. Inc. began operating on its own. The first contract was an $18,000,000 Brooklyn asphalt resurfacing contract for the New York City, Department of Transportation.

Since then, Tully Construction Company, Inc. has taken up where Willets Point Contracting left off. Tully continues to work for all the above mentioned agencies. The Tully family has expanded its business interests into construction and closures of landfills, environmental remediation, yard waste recycling and bio-solid reuse, waste water pollution plants, and building demolition and construction, all this while continuing to be one of the top heavy and highway contractors in the tri-state area.

Tully Construction Co., Inc. has expanded to other geographical area’s, by completing projects in the County of Nassau, County of Rockland, County of Westchester, City of Long Beach, City of Glen Cove, Town of Oyster Bay, Town of Islip, Town of Smithtown, Middlesex New Jersey, The Town of Hempstead, City of Stamford, Connecticut, Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, and many other municipal agencies throughout the New York metropolitan and tri-state areas.
