Fort Bragg, North Carolina — A $43.1 million Special Operations Forces barracks is approximately 45% complete and generally ahead of schedule, according to an October 19 construction update from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ Wilmington District.

The four-story, 75,461-square-foot Permanent Party Unaccompanied Housing facility will house 146 soldiers in four-bedroom and two-bedroom residential modules with shared kitchens and living areas. ACC Construction is the design-build contractor and SLA Architects is the designer of record. Foundation work and structural steel are complete; roofing, interior framing, building-services rough-ins, exterior air barrier, masonry and storm drainage work are underway.

Near-term milestones are unusually specific: window installation was scheduled to begin in November, residential HVAC installation in December, air-barrier completion in February 2027 and metal-roof completion in March 2027. The Army currently projects that the facility will be move-in ready in spring 2029.

The update also says USACE is coordinating utilities, telecommunications and furniture, fixtures and equipment planning. Those activities indicate continuing downstream packages and coordination needs, but the source does not identify any current open solicitation. The $43.1 million figure is the total military-construction project value, not a new contract notice.
