Can outposts still be built?
By outpost I mean like an Amarr Factory one or Minmatar service outpost. |

I assume that nobody would bother to, and would just build a Fortizar instead.
However, there hasn't been anything announced about preventing outpost construction.
The most recent outpost build was May 1st in 9-MJVQ (from sidebar on front page of DOTLAN, bottom right). |

Yes. As noted they can be still built as the plan to "phase them out" somehow somewhere in the future is still relatively vague other than devs teasing about it occasionally. That said I would not hold my breath over it happening in immediate future. They also hinted about removing T2 BPO's when doing the invention from game but these are still around all these years later.
As far as large citadels go. Given the current prices it would actually make more sense to drop an Outpost, in my opinion, if one wants a place in system where to dock the capitals. Longer term once prices stabilize it would be probably a tossup - both have their niches I'd guess.

I got the impression that the phase out of outposts was going to be fairly simple.
eventual removal of blueprints, then removal of ability to anchor new eggs,
Then existing outposts would be made destructible, in a similar manner to citadels.
I can not back that up with any official facts, as nothing concrete has been released yet. It just makes sense based on what I have read and heard.
The only solid fact on the issue is that however it happens, it will not be anytime soon. |

The new structures will achieve feature parity with Outposts when the Industrial Arrays are released in the fall. I expect CCP to remove the ability to build new Outposts and start discussing their plans for removing them at that time. It will be better for the game if they do it quickly through a buyback or exchange program rather than have old and new co-exist for an extended period of time. |

Contracts and courier contracts are also a HUGE MAJOR requirement for outpost replacement. |
