On April 11, 2025, the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy (USMMA) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, New York District entered into a long-term agreement for the revitalization and modernization of the USMMA campus.
USMMA's Campus Modernization Plan has a total of 41 projects that will provide new and refurbished academics and barracks, athletic facilities, and waterfront infrastructure. Capital improvements will take place over a 16-year period.
The goal of the Campus Modernization Plan is to provide a safe, secure, and sustainable campus environment; to develop adaptable and modern real property, to preserve historic character, and to enhance the USMMA institutional legacy.
The project is currently in the design process.
