According to Grok, the FBI/DHS do not assist in building federal prisons. They are built by the Bureau of Prisons, which is overseen by the DOJ.
So why did Trump instruct the FBI/DHS to assist in the reopening of Alcatraz?
It must have something to do with National Security. Sounds like the inmates being held at Alcatraz will likely be those considered domestic threats to NATSEC, therefore of interest to the FBI/DHS, and thus these agencies need to have input on the security and design of the facility.
That’s my best guess as of now. Maybe I am reading too much into it, but it sounds like Trump is creating his own supermax prison, to hold the highest profile domestic prisoners, with some sort of implication to NATSEC.
And for those asking “why not GITMO”, that’s because GITMO is for hostile enemy combatants and war criminals prosecuted via military courts, and kept off US soil (Cuba) for legal reasons. Alcatraz would house domestic criminals on US soil, prosecuted by the US civilian court system.

For those of you concerned about the supposed cost to operate Alcatraz…
You fail to recognize the value of a deterrent.
Alcatraz was turned from a military prison, to a federal civilian prison in 1934, mostly to combat organized crime. The small cells and harsh conditions were notorious and feared, which served as a deterrent to strike fear into criminals, and hopefully prevent them from engaging in organized crime in the first place. In addition, the island prison was essential to isolate influential gangsters from mainland prisons, where they could more easily bribe guards and carry out criminal activity from behind bars.
Trump rebuilding Alcatraz is not about operating a cost-efficient supermax prison. It’s about creating an iconic deterrent to let criminals know that law and order is back, and that those committing heinous crimes on our soil… a terrible fate awaits you.
Alcatraz’s value is not just in harboring high-profile criminals, but in preventing crimes before they happen, by making an example of the worst of the worst.

Sounds like bambino will have housing available after they cut off his social security.

Just another indicator that Trump wants to take us back to the beginning of the 20th century.
