ACC Elgin B2000 Canopy

The ACC Elgin B2000 Canopy is a completed 568 sq ft addition to the Austin Community College District's facility at 1501 US-290 in Elgin. This structure was built to abut the existing Building 2000, providing shelter for the dog kennels on the site. The work involved the installation of a pre-manufactured canopy designed to protect these areas from inclement weather. With the construction phase finished, the project stands as a functional improvement to the college's existing infrastructure in Bastrop County.

The estimated cost for this new construction was $150,000, resulting in a cost of $264 per square foot. This figure is above the county median of $156 per square foot for similar new construction filings. The total project cost sits below the Bastrop County median of $1,000,000, placing it in the lower range of recent filings. The scheduled build window was 60 days, which is shorter than the county median of 245 days for projects of this type.
