ABOUT THE ROOSEVELT ROADS REDEVELOPMENT PROJECT
Welcome to the Roosevelt Roads Redevelopment project, an information and education center about this extraordinary project that will enhance economic and social growth in Puerto Rico.
With a $2.46 billion investment, this project will generate approximately 24,700 jobs. Another 40,000 jobs will be created throughout the different construction phases.
Under the Governor’s Executive Order, the Local Redevelopment Authority (LRA) was created in 2004 for planning and implementation of property reuse at the former Naval Station Roosevelt Roads.
The LRA is the public face of the Roosevelt Roads Redevelopment project. Our objective is to create jobs and spur economic development in the eastern region and Puerto Rico, and integrate strategies for reuse that offset the economic impacts associated with the base closure in 2004.
