I REALLY enjoy the posts on "Connecticut Construction Trucks" I grew up in Bridgeport in the 70's and 80's. Brings back LOTS of good memories. Thank you, ALL. I have 2 questions for your readers. #1 There are no Pic's of "Mark IV construction" Mack trucks. Manny, Been running Mack's sense the 70's (looking at photos of his driveway fight with the airport) he still has Mack's in his fleet. #2 " David D'Adarrio " Has been quoted in print. HI HO D'Adarrio still has trucks on the road and still has construction interests, But is not D'Addario Industries core business. Haven't seen any new trucks ?

The current O&G brideport plant covers 2 propertys. Former Levely & Hurley plant and the bridgeport Hydraulics truck yard property. The old Silliman Bros, plant was between RT8 and North Av. That plant was fun to watch, Rail cars dumped straight down into the hoppers. (feeding both mixing plants) It is now a Autozone and Mcdonalds.
