Has the Washington Square Park reconstruction done yet?

Question

last time I was there it was under heavy construction - no benches or anything else :(

I really liked the atmosphere, probably one of the best places the hang out in in NYC - does anyone know if they finished most of it or if they at least opened a part of it where all the musicians and all hang out now days?

Thanks!

Not until about Spring 2009. Sorry.

I was there on August 16, 2008, and there was still heavy construction.  However, there was another part of the park that was open.  There were musicians and many people there.  It was lovely and so relaxing.
