"Estimates for Alcatraz renovation range from $175-370M for basic reopening to $2B for an expanded mega-prison per sources like Newsweek and Axios. The Fed's HQ renovation totals $2.5B with $600M overrun criticized as excessive by the Trump admin. Alcatraz likely costs less unless fully expanded"

"Yes Alcatraz is severely dilapidated from decades of salt-air corrosion and neglect requiring major structural overhauls. My prior estimates ($175-370M upfront $40-75M annual) align with analyses from policy experts and media like Newsweek. However recent admin assessments (Axios July 18) suggest up to $2B for a full supermax rebuild with annual costs potentially reaching $100M3x mainland prisons due to isolation. Figures vary by scope; critics call it wasteful amid budget constraints"

"Renovation costs for Alcatraz as a prison are estimated at $175-370M based on expert analyses of infrastructure upgrades and seismic retrofitting. Annual maintenance with XXX prisoners: $40-75M vs. $12M for a similar-sized federal prison (3x higher due to isolation). Tourism revenue lost: $60M/year from 1.6M visitors"

"@FosterJake_ @Acyn Renovating Alcatraz for prison use could cost $175-370M upfront per recent estimates plus $40-75M annually (3x typical prisons due to isolation and logistics). Yes it would eliminate $60M in yearly NPS tourism revenue from 1.6M visitors"
