Work commenced on the construction of the site within the month of its establishment, indicating the extent of official backing, including the assignment of penitents from the Benacian Labour Reserve to expedite completion.
Designated as the site of Submarine Construction Pen № 1 by the Naval Construction Office on VI.1728 AN, with expansion work commencing in the following month as writs of appropriation were served upon the title deed holders of adjacent properties.
