Leavenworth officials gathered Friday to celebrate the completion of a $4.89 million street project. “This project has been a long time coming to fruition,” Leavenworth Public Works Director Mike McDonald said. His remarks came during a ribbon-cutting ceremony for a Thornton Street improvement project. The ceremony took place at the Municipal Service Center, which is located on Thornton Street. The project resulted in the reconstruction of Thornton Street between Fifth Street and 10th Avenue. McDonald said the length of that stretch of Thornton Street is about 1.5 blocks short of a mile.
