During the 1970's, the firm, which was now known as The Barletta Company, completed a number of contracts at Boston's Logan International Airport, including the creation of Bird Island Flats. Other projects included the construction of thirteen bridges on Interstate 95, the reconstruction of the Interstate 495 and 290 Interchange in Worcester, Massachusetts, and completion of a pollution abatement and flood control facility for the Boston Redevelopment Authority. Through the 1980's and 1990's, the company moved almost exclusively into the field of vertical construction. Besides working on the Massachusetts Water Resources Authority's massive Deer Island Treatment Plant facility, Barletta also completed many waste and water treatment plants and institutional buildings for local municipalities, and it was during this time that the Engineering Division was added. With the passing of Vincent Barletta, Sr., in 1998, his sons ascended to leadership roles in the firm. Determined to maintain the atmosphere of a family-owned company, the brothers were equally determined to move the business into the future. Barletta's Heavy Division was founded that same year, returning the company to its roots in heavy and highway construction. Working on the new Central Artery / Tunnel project brought the Barletta name full-circle; re-building the infrastructure of Eastern Massachusetts that it had originally built over half a century before.
