South Padre Island Awarded Historic $200M Coast Guard Project ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿšค

The largest single construction project in the 235-year history of the U.S. Coast Guard is happening right here on South Padre Island.

The Coast Guard has officially awarded a $200 Million contract to completely rebuild and expand the SPI station.

This project isn't just an upgrade; it's a recovery. On April 20, 2025, a fire severely damaged the station's boathouse. Despite the destruction, crews were back on patrol the very next day.

Work begins immediately. Completion is set for Summer 2028.

McAllen, Texas - Major Updates Coming to Nolana Avenue! ๐Ÿš—
