Out at Charles Point the wind comes straight off open water with nothing to slow it, and snow there arrives wet, heavy and nearly horizontal. HCR General Construction Corp. clears it — plowing lots and driveways, opening loading aprons, walkways and entries, spreading salt where the wind has polished a surface to glass. Peekskill's working edge does not get a snow day; trucks still arrive, doors still open, people still have to park. So the blade goes down early and stays out until the pavement is dark again. That is the whole job, and it is worth doing exactly.
