What Restani Construction does

Restani Construction Corp is a privately held, family-owned heavy civil construction company founded in 1972 in Astoria, Queens, New York. The company specializes in the reconstruction and rehabilitation of metropolitan transportation and utility infrastructure, with core service lines in Heavy Highway & Bridges, Utilities & Infrastructure (water main, sanitary and storm sewer replacement), Energy & Gas (turnkey electric and gas main work, primarily for Consolidated Edison), and Milling & Paving (supported by a large proprietary equipment fleet). Projects are delivered primarily through traditional Design-Bid-Build procurement, with active expansion into integrated Design-Build delivery.

The company serves nearly exclusively New York City and State government agencies — including NYC DOT, NYS DOT, NYC DDC, MTA Bridges and Tunnels, NYC DEP, Port Authority, and NYC Parks — supplemented by private utility work for Con Edison and subcontractor roles for major international primes such as Tutor Perini, Skanska, Turner, and Lend Lease. Documented contract scale includes 500+ lane miles of milling for NYC DOT across 15+ contracts, 300+ lane miles of pavement preservation for NYS DOT across 5 contracts, and marquee bridge work on the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge (completed 7 months early) and other MTA crossings.

Restani is led by second-generation family principals Sal Restivo and Charles Restivo Jr., with 51-100 employees, no disclosed external investors, and no parent company. GTM is enterprise field sales through competitive public bidding. Revenue is not publicly disclosed, and there is no indication of funding activity; growth signals are capability-oriented (Design-Build, emergency response, sports/parks diversification) rather than scale-oriented.
