## Resource

The Coast Guard is pouring $230 million into Charleston’s base — not just a cosmetic upgrade, but a full-scale transformation to make it the East Coast’s premier operational hub. With over $440 million earmarked this year, they’re building a 90,000-square-foot engineering center, a 12,000-square-foot multi-use facility, and a new parking structure. The move is designed to supercharge support for Lowcountry personnel, streamline operations, and future-proof the base for evolving mission demands — turning Charleston into a true powerhouse for years to come.
