THE US Embassy has shared an update on the progress of construction of the new embassy at Maraval as workmen prepare foundation work for the new building at the former site of Trinidad Country Club.

"This phase reflects our commitment to building a secure and modern facility that will support our diplomatic mission and serve the people of TT for years to come," the embassy said in a social media post on January 10.

In June 2025, work commenced at the estimated US$400 million project to plan, design and build the new embassy on the 11-acre property at 137 Long Circular Road, Maraval. The project is expected to be completed in 2029.
