DHS Consolidation and Development of St. Elizabeths Campus

GSA’s largest-ever construction project, and the largest project in the DC area since the construction of the Pentagon, is the development of a consolidated headquarters for the Department of Homeland Security at the St. Elizabeths campus in southeast DC. Construction is underway for a new headquarters building for the U.S. Coast Guard. GSA is also making sure the project benefits the local community by setting up an on-site Opportunities Trailer where local workers and businesses can find opportunities for jobs or subcontracts on the project.
