BACKGROUND

In 2005, the General Services Administration (GSA) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) began working on plans to consolidate DHS headquarters functions into a single campus location. As a result, the West Campus of St. Elizabeths is being redeveloped into a secure federal campus for elements of DHS. The entire St.

Elizabeths Hospital campus is a National Historic Landmark (NHL). The redevelopment involves the rehabilitation and reuse of existing historic buildings in addition to new construction.

Hitchcock Hall, a 28,700 gsf historic building, will serve as the primary facility in which the Secretary of Homeland Security will hold formal press briefings with the media. The building will also be used to hold conferences and meetings. The rehabilitation of Hitchcock Hall originally began in 2011 as part of the Phase 1 construction and was subsequently placed on hold. The project currently exists in a partially completed state.
