It’s approximately $50,000/acre to dredge.

And when they have to redredge again and again to sustain the land that was built?

Fair enough. Typical dredging projects last 20 years for the first phase, 30-35 years for the second phase, and 50 years for the third phase. Sounds like it would take 3 cycles to match what is being proposed. $600M each cycle is still cheaper than &3B.
