Balfour Beatty Communities in partnership with the United States Army, celebrated the launch of new military family housing construction at Fort Carson, CO. The ceremony, held on 5th August 2024, at the Arapahoe Village neighbourhood construction site within Fort Carson Family Homes, marked the commencement of the first phase in an anticipated multi-phased project looking to bring more than 200 new homes on the base.
This initial phase will deliver 56 new 3- and 4-bedroom townhome units, including an accessible unit designed for persons with disabilities. This development aims to provide high-quality, modern living spaces that cater to the needs of military families stationed at Fort Carson. Features will include garages, an open-concept floor plan, plank flooring, energy-efficient appliances, and EV charging infrastructure.
Col. Sean M. Brown, former Garrison Commander, Fort Carson said: "This project represents a critical investment in the quality of life for our service members and their families. We are excited to see these new homes come to fruition and are grateful for the partnership in making this vision a reality."
Theresa Steele, Vice President of Project Development, Balfour Beatty Communities said: "With demolition, site, and utility work behind us, we are thrilled to see these new homes starting to take shape at Fort Carson. This project is a testament to our strong partnership with the US Army and our mutual commitment to providing exceptional living experiences to military families.”
Construction of the first phase of homes is underway, with completion anticipated in September 2025.
