The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Baltimore District executed a five-month accelerated construction timeline from June to November 2025 to deliver the Old Guard's interim stables facility. The project featured innovative elevated platform construction using minimal-disturbance helical pile foundations, allowing the 10,000-square-foot structure to be built above existing parking areas without major site disruption. Key milestones included subfloor and filtration system installation through summer months, followed by September crane operations to position modified CONEX units for the barn, office, and storage components. Throughout construction, several high-ranking Army officials conducted site visits to monitor progress on the critical project. Multiple specialized contractors coordinated installation of equine-specific systems including advanced drainage, climate control, and veterinary facilities designed to house 26 draft horses supporting Arlington National Cemetery ceremonies. The accelerated timeline compressed typical 18-month construction into six months while maintaining the precision standards required for a facility adjacent to the nation's most hallowed grounds.
