In the spring of 1981, a iplanning group was formed to make recommendations
on how best to achieve the consolidation of Agency personnel on the
Headquarters Compound in. order to recognize significant cost reductions and
operational benefits. In the fall of 1981, a building site on the Compound
was selected and the ,Master Development Plan was approved by the National
Capital.Planning Commission. In August 1982, the architectural-engineering
.firm of Smith, Hipchman, and Grylls Associates, Inc. (SH&G) of Detroit was
selected to design a new building, and by March 1983, the final building
design was selected.
Congressional funding was made available in FY-1984. In March 1984,
funding for.BI-d Package frLof-J-S167500;00p was allocated for site preparation,
a retaining wall, the New Building foundation, and a 2500-car parking deck.
In July 1984, funding for aid-Package-f3-of--$I6T8007000 was allocated for a

The New Building project brought about other necessary changes and
improvements to the Headquarters Compound. Various studies of area traffic
situations identified the need for significant improvements to Route 123 and
to the Route 123/193 interchange, as well as lesser improvements to the GWMP.
The(GWMP-project is the construction of a 1000-foot-long accelerationiane
from the Parkway exit ramp to allow a safer and smoother merge of Agency
traffic with the northbound Parkway traffic. This project is about
70%-icoMff1ete, but has been delayed due to winter weather conditions.
Final paviTig7of the roadway surface should be totally completed by the
/a0-Apri1iaTe, date.
The Route 123/193 improvements have taken on a high profile, as might
be expected, due to the involvement of locally elected Federal, State, and
County officials, the Virginia Department of Highways and Transportation
(vbH&T), and local citizen groups. Recent actions have been focusing on an
acceptable final design so that VDH&T may let a contract to begin
construction in the 'fall 1986. Three million dollars has been budgeted
for this project.
I have several slides with me: that show the construction activity
taking place at this time.
