PROBLEM: Is it desirable to pursue the assign- ment of the Navy or Munitions Building to CIA, or to construct a new building designed to meet Agency requirements. 2. FACTS BEARING ON THE PROBLEM: a. CIA has permanent enabling legislation to build a new building at a cost of $38 million. b. Possible building sites: Nevius Tract, Arlington, Virginia Present headquarters location, 2430 E Street N. W. c. Nevius tract -- it has been estimated that it would cost approximately $42.5 million to build on this site. Construction would require two and one-half to three years. d. Present CIA headquarters location -- it has been estimated that an adequate building can be constructed in this area for less than $38 million, including acquisition of land, which would cost approximately $6 million. Time required for construction would be two and one-half to three years. e. Main Navy Building, 17th and Constitution Avenue, N.W. Estimated cost of moving to Navy Building (including moves of other agencies involved) -- approximately $11.1 million. Time required to complete move -- - 237 - Approved For Release gencyCIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 Approved For Release 2foriettibE.-EIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 approximately two years. This would permit 100 percent consolidation, exclusive of warehouses, etc. f. Munitions Building, Navy Annex, 20th and Constitution Avenue, N.W. Estimated cost of moving to Munitions Bonding (including .f? moves of other agencies involved) -- approx- imately $8.1 million. Time required to complete move -- one year. This building would accommodate approximately 70 percent of the Agency and the remaining 30 percent would stay in its present location. 3. DISCUSSION: The estimated cost of construction on the Nevius tract is $4.5 million in excess of the amount authorized in our enabling lation. In addition, use of this site would probably meet with objection by the National Capital Park and Planning Commission and the Fine Arts Commission. However, we could probably build on our present location within the amount authorized and without encountering comparable obstacles. While we could undertake preliminary planning using funds now available to the Agency, it would be at least six months before an approp- riation could be requested from Congress, which i.? means that a new building would not be ready for occupancy for three to three and one-half years from now, and it is not certain that Congress would appropriate the necessary funds. The Main Navy Building would permit 100 percent consolidation of the Agency, exclusive of ware- house, etc., and is preferable to the Munitions Building. The acquisition of either, however, would eliminate any justification for a new CIA building in the foreseeable future. The Navy and Munitions Buildings are both old, temporary buildings which, although a great im- provement over what we now have, still are far from ideal for our purposes, and would be ex- pensive to maintain. - 238 - Approved For Release 2ffilefeiCIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 sal oil awl Approved For Release 269EIVRAETIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 4. CONCLUSIONS: In view of the time lag in our ability to request funds for a new building and the uncertainty of obtaining those funds, together with the substantial additional time required to construct a new building, it is concluded that it is desirable to make an im- mediate attempt to obtain as a first choice the Navy Building and as a second choice the Muni- tions Building. 5.

Washington, D.C. Before The Senate Appropriations Committee Subcommittee of Department of Defense Senator Chavez, Chairman July 11, 1956 Opposition of [sic] Building a CIA Headquarters at Langley, Virginia Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the Committee: I am appearing a:srespresentative [sic] of the Progressive Citizens Association of Georgetown (approx- imately 900 members) and the Audubon Society of the District of Columbia (approximately 1200 members in the Greater Washington area). I have also been asked to speak for the Middle States Division of the American Canoe Association. Your Committee has been asked to recommend an ap- propriation of $490000,000 to build a mammoth CIA Head- quarters (approaching the Pentagon in size) at Langley, Virginia, on a site with no present access except a ? winding 2-lane State road, and with no sewage facilities, -245 - Approved For Release 2Stelft/CIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 Approved For Release 20009E:EIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 whatever. The cost of roads, bridges, and sewage disposal would be absolutely colossal. Parenthetically, it might be impossible ever to resolve the sewage problem at the Langley site no matter how much money were spent, as I shall try to show later. Without these access and sanitary facilities, a CIA headquarters at Langley simply could not function. The price of. such improvements should be considered just oeffil as much a part of the cost, as the price of the CIA buildings themselves. I. submit that it is entirely un- realistic to talk about appropriating $49,000,000 to build a CIA Langley headquarters, when in fact the $49,000,000 is only a part of. that cost. I have studied the arguments and the pages of testi- mony on why or why. not to build CIA at Langley, and I find that the fact fairly jumps out if [sic] even those line of fine print that the pro-Langley plan is very simple. Get.money from Congress to put up the buildings, and then somehow some Government depaitment or agency owe will just simply have to go to work and figure out how to solve access and sanitation problems, and how to get - 246 - Approved For Release 20ghlafttiJA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 Approved For Release RECERIENCIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 appropriations from Congress to pay for them. True there have been tentative plans put forth as to wideniqg roads and bridges and laying sewer mains, with rough estimates of the cost. But even a .superficial reading shows them to be vague and generalized, with so many essential details not covered, as to be unacceptable in a business sense, particularly when such sums are involved. I submit, Mr. Chairman, enormous that it is wrong Vven to consider CIA's request for $49,000,000 to ,build at Langley unti4 and unless CIA also submits a re- quest for appropriations to cover this other utterly essential part of the job. Now the above reasoning would hold good even if Langley were an ideal, ?or even a fairly practicable, site for CIA. But by all fair standards it is a tragically bad site. Believe me, my associates and I have tried to be objective and have tried hard to find some cogent reasons for CIA at Langley, but again after going over and over the arguments and testimony we can find only two real reasons advanced for it: (1) It would be pleasant for CIA employees to work in park-like surroundings with a river view. - 247 - Approved For Release 20gEfen,i1A-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 Approved For Release 2061FOUWXA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 (2) It would be good for real estate people mig who could put up housing developments and shopping centers nearby. On the other hand the arguments against CIA at Langley seem overwhelming. I shall list them briefly ? before I close: (1) Sewage. The Potomac is hideously ... polluted. Federal and State Governments are be- ginning the Augean task of trying to clean it up. Yet here is a proposal to put a junior Pentagon, with all those thousands of people, on a bluff of the Potomac about one-half mile above the new intake for the District water supply!! True, the local Virginia .authorities have committed to provide sewage facilities to the Langley CIA buildings, but so far as I can ascertain they have shown no plans as to what they are to do with the effluvient except to dump it into the Potomac. And apparently there are no plans or ideas at all as to what to do about sewage from all the new communities that would spring up in the CIA area -- a problem that can reasonably be expected to grow as big as that of the CIA headquarters itself. And again, *al wir war - 248 - Approved For Release 2001/08a ?

I submit Mr. Chair- man, that this is little short of a medieval approach to a grave health problem and is unacceptable by any modern standard. (2) Bridges. Every day the press carries articles on where and how to build more bridges, or whether to pay the enormous sums required to bore a tunnel, in order to get the population back and forth across the Potomac, or to route traffic around and outside the District. All the proposed plans are drawn up with the idea of just keeping traffic moving for the population as it is at present distributed. We all know that that alone is a problem of staggering magnitude. Yet here we have a proposal to compound confusion by putting up a vast CIA complex at a spot in every way situated so as to generate more, much more, cross-river traffic. (3) District Traffic. A CIA spokesman before the House Appropriations Committee in June estimated that "a large part of the 37% (of CIA traffic to Langley) would find the Key Bridge probably more convenient than Chain Bridge or Memorial Bridge." If you go to either mewl - 249 - Approved For Release 20gEt19E,i1A-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 ?

No plans that I know of have been made to take care of this increased traffic in the narrow en- virons of the Georgetown end of Chain Bridge [sic], and no such plans could be carried out without destroying much of Georgetown's present character and present property values. A similar, or perhaps, worse, situation would exist at Chain Bridge, which it is proposed to widen. Approaches are narrow and there are numerous dead ends. True, the National Capital Regional Planning Commission proposes improvements to Canal Road and Weaver Place to serve Chain Bridge, at an estimated cost of $900,000. I believe this estimate far too low for the size of the job. It is also obvious that it does not take into ac- count (as there is no account taken in the case of Key Bridge) of the change in traffic patteims all over that part of the District of 'Columbia within two or three - 250 - Approved For Release mai91,CIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 Approved For Release 20SEGMTIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 miles of Key and Chain Bridge that would result from the traffic flow engendered by a huge CIA complex at Langley. (4) Impact on the Comprehensive Plan. This com- prehensive plan was set up by the National and the Regional Capital Planning Commissions to provide for orderly development.of.the Nation's Capital and its environs. Putting CIA at Langley cuts directly across ? this Plan and flouts its basic concepts, as is plainly ? shown on page 2.of the National Capital Planning Com- mission's report of March-2, 1956,- to which I fully in- vite your attention. (5) Potential Park Land. The proposed site of CIA Langley is on a tract of land now under the Bureau of Public Roads, which has indicated it does not need it. If there were no CIA at Langley this tract would ? almost certainly, become park-land (for which it is ideally suited) in conjunction with the George Washington Memorial. Highway; since it could be occupied as such under the Capper-Crampton Act. The tract is unique in ? NMI being so near a big city yet possessing so many natural blessings. There are great stands of hardwoods, graves - 251 - Approved For Release 200V6itti.kA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 Approved For Release 266WOEZIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 of flowering trees and bushes, abundant wild flowers and ferns many of them rare species, beautiful river views, and teeming bird and animal life. In conjunc- tion with the George Washington Memorial Highway it could be made into a really fabulous park accessible to all the people. Yet it is proposed to shut it off for one Government agency and forever destroy much of ?its unspoiled character with huge building projects. This tragic deed would run counter to the aims of every conservation organization in the country and would be an official negation by the U. S. Government of every tenet of modern sociological thinking which stresses the. need of increasing open spaces for increasing population. (6) Other Locations for CIA. I shall not take up any more of your time other than to invite attention to the several other proposed locations for CIA, in the Northwest Section, in the new Southwest Redevelopment Area, in the vicinity of Alexandria, and in the vicinity of the National Training School for Boys; sites where most, if not all, of the deeply objectionable features of the Langley site do not exist. This matter of alter- native sites has been covered in cogent detail by the recommendations submitted to CIA by the Federal City - 252 - Approved For Release 2gWaRE,iplA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 Approved For Release Kota CIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 Council. Mr. Chairman, I can sum up my regrettably long testimony in a few words: This plan of CIA at Langley is indigestible and uncooked. Yet it has the most serious potential impact on the entire District of Columbia area. As hardheaded, but I believe public-spirited, citizens and taxpayers, we urgently request that you recommend that appropriations be held up until the present fuzzy picture is brought into a reasonable focus justifying the outpouring of billions of dollars for CIA at Langley.

C. OFFICE OF THE DIRECTOR July 26, 1955 The Honorable George H. Mahon Chairman, Defense Subcommittee House Committee on Appropriations Washingthn25, D. C. Dear Mr. Chairman: Under the provisions of the Military Construction Act of 1955 (P.L. 161), CIA is authorized to construct a headquarters installation at a cost of $54,500,000. Of this sum not to exceed $8,500,000 may be utilized for transfer to the National Capital Planning Commis- sion and the Department of the Interior for the cost of extending the George Washington Memorial Parkway to the site of the Research Station of the Bureau of Public Roads at Langley, Fairfax County, Virginia, including acquisition of rights of way. The law provides that if CIA does not locate at the site at Langley, the $8,500,000 shall not be available for obligation. The law also provides that not to exceed $1,000,000 may be spent for the acquisition of a site. - 254 - Approved For Release 2001/0MMDP9Q-00708R000300050001-1 Approved For Release SEINtErCIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 On 23 June, when I appeared before your Subcom- mittee in support of appropriations for this construc- tion, the Military Construction Act had not yet passed the Congress. Until passed, the extension of the Park- way would not be assured and since this is essential to location at Langley, final determination on the site could not be made. The House Appropriations Committee therefore recommended the sum of $3,000,000 for CIA to proceed with the preparation of detail plans and speci- fications, but postponed consideration of funds for a site. Subsequently, the sum recommended by the Appro- priations Committee was stricken from the bill on the Floor of the House on a point of order. When I later appeared before the Defense Appro- ? priations Subcommittee in the Senate, P.L. 161 authori- zing extension of the George Washington Memorial Park- way to the Langley site had been enacted. I informed that Subcommittee that CIA strongly preferred locating its headquarters installation on the Government-owned tract at Langley, although, should the Committee deny funds for the Parkway extension, a tract at Alexandria would be acceptable. I pointed out to the Senate Sub- - 255 - Approved For Release 2001/08/02VDP90-00708R000300050001-1 SECR owl qart *MI Approved For Release 4244/NrCIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 committee that failure to determine the site had been a major factor in the allowance by the House Appro- priations Committee of funds for plans and specifica- tions only. I further noted that such plans could not be properly prepared. until a site was selected, and that to plan for Langley, we would require an additional $4,000,000 for the first year's work on the Parkway ex- tension to assure that the Parkway would be completed when our installation was ready for occupancy. Further- more, I pointed out that it was my understanding that the House Committee preferred not to use unobligated balances for this construction project, and recommended that the Committee give us a direct appropriation of $7,000,000. We have obtained the approval of the Bureau of the Budget for the use of direct appropriations, and a copy of the authorization from Mr. Hughes, Director of the Bureau of the Budget, dated 21 July 1955, is at4t tached for your information. The Senate Appropriations Committee has now ap- proved the sum of $3,000,000 for the preparation of detail plans,,and specifications and $4,000,000 for the extension of the Parkway, with a proviso that, if CIA -1256 - Approved For Release 2001/08/09 ?

It is my earnest hope that the House Appropria- tions Committee will accept the action of the Senate Appropriations Committee with one change. The best offer we now have for sufficient land in Alexandria is about $500,000; hence $350,000 appears inadequate and should be increased to $500,000. This does not increase the total of $7,000,000 requested since if site money is expended the $4,000,000 for the Parkway will not be re- quired. While we consider the Langley site is the best available, we believe provision for an alternative is advisable to insure that the final choice is the best for our purposes, and that the construction of our permanent headquarters is completed at the earliest possible time. I am attaching herewith a more detailed statement of our position in this matter so that you may be fully aware of the reasons for our preference for Langley and the steps that have been taken in connection with that site. - 257 - Approved For Release 2001/08/09 ?

DULLES, DIRECTOR OF CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE, IN CONNECTION WITH THE REQUEST FOR AN APPROPRIATION TO CONSTRUCT A HEADQUARTERS INSTALLATION FOR THE CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY. After careful examination of more than thirty sites in or near the metropolitan area of the District of Columbia, the Central Intelligence Agency believes that Langley, Virginia, and Alexandria, Virginia, are the two areas which deserve most serious consideration. CIA would strongly prefer to locate its new head- quarters installation, authorized by P.L. 161, at the site of the Research Station of the Bureau of Public Roads at Langley, Virginia, within this 300-acre tract of Government-owned land. CIA would need 100 acres of this tract for its building site and access roads, for adequate parking space for its employees, and for security reasons. A primary reason for CIA's preference for the Langley site is that of security. , If CIA occupies this site, it will be surrounded mi two sids by the re- maining 200 acres of the tract, and on the third side by land owned by the National Park Service which - 260 - Approved For Release 2001/08/09 ? CIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 SECRET Approved For Release AFORLOTCIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 extends to the Potomac River, Thus, we would be fully protected on three sides of the site. On the fourth side, the land is privately-owned, but lightly settled with one-family houses which would cause no problem. Thus, we are assured of maximum security for the instal- lation. In addition, should it be necessary for the Central Intelligence Agency to expand because of war or national emergency, additional Government land is ad- jacent,to the site at Langley for this purpose. On the other hand, if we are to locate in the Alexandria area and can obtain 100 acres of land, there is every reason to believe that the site would be immediately surrounded with apartments and small houses, as well as possible commercial developments. This would present greater security problems than are present at the esig Langley site and is a primary factor in our preference for Langley. The Langley site compares favorably with other possible sites in terms of accessibility to the other Esa Government agencies with which we must be in continual daily contact. Pram the standpoint of the morale of our personnel, the Langley site would be preferable as ???11 - 261 - Approved For Release affeilikflA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 Approved For Release motor CIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 it would involve at most a very small relocation of the homes of our personnel. It should be noted in connection with an Alexandria site, that on the basis of the present residences of CIA employees almost two-thirds of their number would have to travel through the District of Columbia at the height of the morning and evening rush hour, with a large con- centration at the Memorial Bridge and the proposed new Constitution Avenue bridge, and moving in the same di- rection as the bulk of traffic as far as the Pentagon. On the other hand, if Langley is selected, this situa- tion would be eased somewhat in view of the fact that 48% of CIA personnel live in the Northwest area of Washington and Montgomery County. They would use Key and Chain Bridges, and eventually the proposed new Cabin John Bridge, to the Langley site and would be travelling to and from work in the opposite direction from the flow of traffic. CIA has consulted with the elected officials of Fairfax County with regard to the Langley property ?since November 1954. The Board of County Supervisors of Fairfax County have, by formal resolution, extended - 262 - Approved For Release 2001/08/09 LcIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 SECRET Approved For Release gEmitu CIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 an invitation to CIA to occupy this site. The Planning Commission of Fairfax County has formally expressed to the County Board of Supervisors the desirability of the CIA location at Langley, and :their Chairman has stated that in this expression the Commission feels that they have correctly expressed the overwhelming majority sen- timent of Fairfax County residents. Similar invita- tions have been expressed by the Fairfax County Chamber of Commerce representing more than 450 members without dissent, the McLean Business Association, and the Great Falls Grange No. 738 with a membership of 242. ' Several citizens and Fairfax County officials testified before the Defense Appropriations Subcommittee of the Senate' in favor of CIA's use of the Langley site and also presented a map showing that over 80% of the property owners in the immediate vicinity of the site favored its use by CIA. It should be noted that a small minority of local residents of the Langley area have pro- tested against the location of CIA at the Langley site, and representatives of this group, as well as officials from Alexandria also testified before the Subcommittee. The Central Intelligence Agency naturally under- Approved For Release 2001/08/09 ? cIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 SECRET Approved For Release t ? I- MEW CIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 stands the feelings of some of the residents of the Langley area who, rightly or wrongly, feel that the comparative seclusion of their community may be some- what impaired by the Agency's location there. However, there seems to be no question but that, with the ex- ception of this very small minority, Fairfax County wholeheartedly welcomes the CIA. The .Agency feels that it is its primary duty, while taking into account the feelings of the residents, to attempt to select that site which will best facilitate the carrying out of its work in the public interest; and in view of the invitations and backing it has received from the people and officials of the area CIA feels justified in ex- pressing its preference for the Langley site. In order for CIA to locate at Langley, it is necessary to improve the site's accessibility by the extension of the George Washington Memorial Parkway from its present terminus at Spout Run approximately 3-1/2 miles below Chain Bridge to the Langley site, a distance of approximately 7 miles. The authorization for this Parkway has been on the statute books for 25 years. The Capper-Crampton Act of May 29, 1930 (46 Stat. - 264 - Approved For Release 2001/08/02 Lc41A-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 SECRET el=11 Approved For Release ?

The General Counsel of the National Capital Planning Commission has given a formal opinion that the proposed extension is within the contemplation of this Act. ,It should also be noted that the National Capital Planning Commission has been acquiring rights of way for the Parkway extension from its present terminus at Spout Run to a point slightly above Chain Bridge irrespective of whether or not CIA might at some time locate at Langley. Funds have been included in the NCPC budget for this purpose. These funds may not, however, be sufficient to acquire all the rights of way to the Langley site, and for this reason the Congress, in the Military Construction Act of 1955, authorized CIA to transfer certain funds to the Com- mission for this purpose. Thus, it seems evident that - 265 - Approved For Release 2001/08/09 : _cIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 SECRET gni Approved For Release 2 BORETIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 the extension of this Parkway, which is a part of the master plan for the development of the metropolitan area, will be completed within the next few years in any event and CIA is merely speeding up this 7-mile extension to have it completed at the time of its oc- cupancy of the Langley site. The Office of the Commissioner of Highways (Vir- ginia), in a letter dated 23 May 1955 to the County Executive of Fairfax County, stated that in view of the probability of a CIA installation near Langley they had allocated $100,000 for the present fiscal year for the widening of Route 123 from Chain Bridge west, with a ,reasonable expectation for additional funds in the next fiscal year. On 9 June, the Highway Commissioner of Virginia wrote that the cost of widening Route 123 to a 4-lane highway from its intersection with the George Washington Memorial Parkway below the Langley site to its intersection with Route 193 above the site would be provided at their expense, and that this would be done concurrently with the development of the Parkway ex- tension. On the same day, this matter was discussed with Governor Stanley of Virginia, and the meeting 're- - 266 - Approved For Release 2001/08/09 ?

While this may be an acceleration in the plans of the State of Virginia for the development of Highway 123, such plans were already in existence for future implementation and extend beyond the present commitments. In its resolution of May 4, 1955, inviting the CIA to use the Langley site, the Board of Supervisors of Fairfax County assured the Agency "that the Fairfax County Government stands ready to cooperate fully in all matters under its own responsibilities." In its resolution of 18 May the Board authorized the for- warding of a letter to CIA stating "that the county can assure within two years from this date the availability of sewers for the facility contemplated on a basis of charges on rentals for such sewer service at figures which will not exceed the regular charges elsewhere in the county." We have further been informed that no part of the $250,000-$300,000 which this construction will cost will be borne by the Federal Government. dal vonl Moreover, the cost of this additional link will not be a cost to the taxpayers. It is simply a financing pro- - 267 - ?

It should be noted that Fairfax County voted a $20,000,000 integrated sewer system in 1953, and a $2,000,000 unit of this system is presently being in- stalled in the McLean-Langley area. Therefore bringing of this link to the boundary of the CIA property is but a small part of the overall system in that area. The City of Falls Church has assured CIA of its ability to supply water for the installation, and it does not require financial help from the Federal Govern- ment to make this possible. The City has funds avail- able in the sum of approximately $5,000 to extend the existing water main some 1,500 feet to serve the Langley site. Somewhat similar assurances as to roads, sewers, and water supply have been received from Alexandria officials, who have invited CIA to locate within their city. The cost of the building construction itself will not vary appreciably as between the Langley site or an Alexandria site. Insofar as the expenditure of Federal - 268 - Approved For Release 20E08%9 OA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 Approved For Release Eeit TCIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 funds is concerned, a site in Alexandria could pre- sumably be acquired for something in the neighborhood of $500,000, whereas the Langley site is on Government- owned land. If the Langley site is utilized, an ex- penditure of 8.5 million dollars for the extension of the George Washington Memorial Parkway will be in- volved. However, as noted above, this Parkway has long been authorized, and its completion is a part of the master plan for the development of the District of Columbia and its environs. The acceleration of the Parkway's extension will not change the eventual ex- penditure, and it will permit. this Agency to occupy a preferred site with sufficient Government-owned acreage surrounding it to give better security protection than is presented by the alternative. - 269 - Approved For Release gyikeiiCIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 I t Approved For Release 2001/08/09 rCIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 Appendix I CIA Organizational Arrangement for the Development of nDefinitiven Plans for a Permanent Headquarters Building 4 October 1955 I Architect-1 I Engineer I? ?

This is in regard to the paper which you gave to the Director and which was discussed at the Deputies Meeting on 28 January. It is regrettable that this paper was not considered by the Building Steering Com- mittee prior to presentation to the Director, inasmuch as it is my understanding that the Steering Committee was established to obtain views on such major problems. Further, it would have been more useful had the Steering Committee been able to debate this matter before the Director was approached for a decision. Inasmuch as at some future date there may be inquiry into how certain decisions affecting the building were reached, I wish 271 - Approved For Release 2001/08/09 ? CIA:RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 SECRET Approved For Release .SIMBET: CIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 to go on record concerning certain matters in this paper. 2. First, the intent of Congress is well expressed in the conference report on the appropriations bill. I do not believe that it could be made more abundantly clear that the CIA building is intended to accommodate "all of its headquarters personnel." Further, I would construe the balance of this statement as precluding any return to Congress after construction has started to secure money for another wing or an additional building. In addition, one of our major selling points in securing the authorization and appropriation for the building was that it would save $3,200,000 per annum. We already plan to reduce these savings by 50 per cent by leaving out certain elements. With the increase in cost of the building, and the necessity for leaving out even more elements if we stay at our present size or grow, it is obvious that these savings will be reduced further, even totally disappear. This, to my mind, makes it even more essential that we approach both the President and the Congress and explain to them exactly what must be done to house all of our headquarters per- Approved For Release 2001/08/02 ;41k-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 SECRET, Approved For Release 219CEOREMIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 sonnel. Reasonable individuals are not going to blame CIA for increases in building costs. Furthermore, I believe this agency can be severely criticized for com- promising with present day circumstances to erect a building that will be unsatisfactory in the future. Not to face this issue today simply exposes the agency to severe attack when the realization dawns on the Congress and Washington that we built a building that couldn't house our headquarters personnel. 3. It is perfectly true as stated in this memoran- dum that to reraise this subject might expose us to the ' dangers of not getting the building at all at this time. However, assuming that this building is our permanent headquarters that will exist for decades, I do not feel that we should neglect any step that we can take in order to make the facts known to the White House and the Congress before we commence construction. In fact, I would go further and say that I consider it mandatory that whether we ask for more money or not, we advise the White House, the Bureau of the Budget and the Congress as to exactly how many persons in Washington will not be accommodated in the new, headquarters building.

Finally, I consider the quoted missives on the subject of keeping down capital expenditures not to be applicable in this regard. First, this building is to be a part of the permanent Washington landscape. Second, the savings inherent in its construction mean its amortization in 20 years. Third, the administration's de- sire to cut down on capital expenditures is related specifically to the present day economic situation, and' by the time our contracts commence to affect either the money or materials market in 1958, the present economic situation may be drastically changed. ' 5. I therefore most strongly recommend that whether our approaches to the White House, Bureau of the Budget and the Congress are in the nature of requesting $14,000,000 additionally or will have to leave must so advise and face the of advising them that we out of the building, we possibility of being ordered to reduce headquarters by that number, or delaying con- struction.

One of the major problems in connection with the planning for a new headquarters building is created by the time lag between the date final working drawings are completed, and the date the .00 building is ready for occupancy. During this period many changes occur in organization, personnel strength, operating procedures, and in the equipment and facili- ties required by the Agency for efficient operation. Such changes affect partition layouts, door locations, air conditioning, light, power, and other facilities. 2. In order that the maximum number of necessary changes might be effected prior to completion of con- 25X1A struction, devised a means of templating 010? Agency space layouts of the new building to serve for working out building revisions resulting from changes in organization, working relationships, and procedures. His scheme also provides a means for determining location of telephone and power outlets, and when the building is complete will serve for planning and executing the move into the new building. 25X1A 3. scheme was accomplished by using acetate sheets approximately two feet square ell on each of which the outline of a section of the building was drawn at one-eighth scale. Fifteen such sheets provided the layout for an entire floor. A method of mounting these sheets on the wall of the plan room was devised so that each floor of the build- ing could be viewed in its entirety. The building walls and fixed installations such as stairwells, toilets, pneumatic tube stations, columns, and main corridors were inked on the acetate sheets. Partitions within the building were shown in place by the use of three sizes of black tape, each size indicating a 25X1A different type of partition. then devised an economical means of manufacturing trniture templates, drawn to scale, with an adhesive backing permitting them to be removed and reused. - 278 - Approved For Release gum; CIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 25X1A Approved For Release SEIRRE9T. CIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 4. In actual use the acetate sheets are first completed so that the space layout is identical to that shown on the contract drawings. From information as to Agency requirements each space layout is templated to show the furniture and equipment the operating ele- ment requires in the new building. The acetate sheets are then reproduced by the ozalid process and copies furnished the prospective occupants. These layouts are reviewed and any required changes discussed with or other members of the Building Planning Staff. When changed conditions warrant revision of the space layout, such revisions are studied and analyzed by using the acetate sheets with the re- movable partitions (tape) and furniture templates. After the templated layouts have been completely re- viewed and approved, additional prints are made and forwarded to Public Buildings Service and to the Con- tract Architect for use in the issuance of such con- tract change orders as may be necessary. Prints of the approved templated layouts are also being used to plan the telephone installation and electric out- lets needed for each office. When the move to the new building is started these templated layouts will provide detailed information as to the placement of each piece of furniture and office equipment. - 279 - Approved For Release 200grekft-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 Approved For Release 2ooliosptiat DP90-00708R000300050001-1 Appendix M History of the CIA Cornerstone Box Following the symbolic placing of the Corner- stone Box at the laying of the CIA Cornerstone by the President of the United States, Dwight D. Eisenhower, on 3 November 1959, the box was removed from its niche and taken into custody until such time as the Corner- stone was permanently emplaced. At that time, the Cornerstone Box contained only, that material which was listed in the program of the Ceremony, minus the microfilm of the newspaper of 3 November, the tape recording of the Cornerstone Ceremony, and the photo- graphs of that occasion. Despite the Director's joking remark to the President (recorded on the tape) that the contents of the Box were "secret", there were no classified documents in the Cornerstone Box. Prior to the ceremony, careful consideration had been given to the documents which were to be included in the Box. After consultation with the Deputy Directors and the Inspector General, Mr. Walter L. Pforzheimer, the Curator of the CIA Historical Intelligence Collection, had drawn up a list of proposed materials for inclu- sion in the Box, subject to the approval of Mr. Dulles. Included on the list were a.considerable number of classified documents, largely in the field of National Estimates. It was finally determined not to include any classified material in the Cornerstone Box at the time of the Ceremony, and that the whole subject of classified contents 'should be held in abeyance until it could be determined what degree of control the Security Office would have over the new building when the box was finally put into the Cornerstone. Late in September 1960, the contractors advised that they were virtually at the point when they would desire to lay the Cornerstone permanently. At that time, the contents of the Cornerstone Box were reconsidered, and the DCI made a final determination that it should contain no classified material. At the request of ' the Office of the DDP, there was added to the contents of the Box those medals which are awarded for distinguished - 280 - Approved For Release 20%1MZETA-RDP90-00708R00030005000171 Approved For Release gvdIttsi CIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 service in the field of intelligence, namely the National Security Medal, the Distinguished Intelli- gence Cross, the Distinguished Intelligence Medal, the Intelligence Star, and the Intelligence Medal of Merit; together with a description of these medals and the certificates which accompany them when awarded; and also a copy of the Certificate of Merit with Dis- tinction and the Certificate of Merit. The complete list of the contents of the Cornerstone Box is appended as Tab A. At this time, reconsideration was also given to the proper preservation of the contents of the Cornerstone Box and its ultimate sealing. There had, been a general feeling that the copper box, furnished by the contractor, was not of the desired standard. It was rather too small for the contents, and its copper was not sufficiently thick to withstand the necessary welding of the top without seriously char- ring the papers enclosed. On the other hand, it had to be of the correct size to fit into the niche provided for it behind the Cornerstone slab. For these reasons, Mr. H. Gates Lloyd, Assistant Deputy Director/Support, made arrangements, through the CIA Technical Services Division, with-the National Bureau of Standards to prepare a new copper box, whose sides are about an eighth of an inch thick. The box has been constructed from thirty pounds of copper. The magnetic tape recording of the Cornerstone Ceremony and the formal opening of the contractor's bids on the building has been placed in a steel box with a quarter inch steel plate on. top and bottom, and a 1/8 inch steel plate on the sides. A description of the Cornerstone Box and its preparation, written by the Bureau Of Standards, is attached herewith as Tab B. On 20 October 1960, Mr. Lloyd and Mr. Pforzheimer, accompanied by twu members of the Technical Services Division Staff, went to the National Bureau of Standards and place ace the material in the Cornerstone Box.

Two large parking lots are provided with a total capacity of 3,000 cars. The parking lots require about 21 acres. Roads on the site serving the building entrances, parking lots, power plant and other facilities total more than 2 miles. In several large areas of the site the natural growth has been left undisturbed except for clearing out brush and dead trees. The entire perimeter of the main part of the site is bounded by trees and very little of the building is visible from the public highways. 3. The Building. The headquarters building is constructed of reinforced concrete with the floor slabs supported by columns generally 20 feet apart center to center. It provides a total of approximately one million square feet of space for use by the Agency. Corridors and service areas require an additional 600,000 square feet. The Ground and First Floors constitute an oblong base with curved outer walls and corners enclosing three landscaped courts, two of which are 80 feet wide by 140 feet deep and a center court 260 feet wide by 140 feet deep.

Rising from this two-story base are five connected towers 90 feet wide and varying in length from 151 feet to 671 feet. These towers contain six floors (second through seventh). Architectural features include a five-foot set- back at the second floor and a ten-foot setback at the seventh floor. Continuous glass windows form the ex- terior walls of those two floors. The Ground Floor exterior has windows two feet by three feet set rather high above the floor level every five feet except at the entrances and several parts of the rear of the building. The remainder of the building (floors 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6). have windows approximately 3 feet wide by about 7 feet high, spaced five feet apart center to center. The windows on these five floors are set in precast concrete with a quartz aggregate finish. The quartz aggregate, while predominantly white, contains some color and serves to relieve what might otherwise be a rather drab concrete finish. There are two penthouses on the building approximately 32 - 290 - Approved For Release 2001/08/09 ? cIA-RDP 9 0 -0 0 7 0 8 RO 0 0 3 0 0 05 0 0 0 1 -1 SECRET Approved For Release 2naiDETIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 feet high, 55 feet wide and 282 feet long, housing elevator machinery, fan rooms for air conditioning and other mechanical and electrical equipment. The entire building is air conditioned. In most areas, floors are covered with asphalt tile. Interior masonry walls are generally plastered and painted. The bulk of the partitioning is of the steel movable type, either full or part height. Part height partitioning is 68" high. Heights from the floor to the ceiling vary, depending upon the use to be made of the space. Ceilings are of acoustical tile suspended from the upper floor slab. The space between the ceiling and the slab above is used for air conditioning ducts, conduit, tube runs and other mechanical and electrical equipment. Lighting is by, fluorescent fixtures generally flush mounted five feet apart. Telephone and electrical outlets are from floor cells so spaced as to provide ample cover- age. 4. Building Facilities.

It has a small stage with a disappearing screen for film projection. The Auditorium is connected to the building by an underground passage which also provides sheltered access to the building from the bus stop near the front of the building. The Cafeteria seats about 1400 people at one time. It is divided into one main dining room, and one smaller dining room. Employees found an innova- tion in cafeteria service that was unique in the area. The new set-up is called by various names -- super- market", "hollow square", and "open square", -- all attempting to describe a system that permits a patron to go directly to various places where the food he wants is displayed, without standing in a line. The new system is under the management of Government Services Incorporated. In addition there is a small table service dining room. Snack bars ?are located throughout the building, generally two to a floor. The executive dining rooms and kitchen are located on the seventh floor. - 292 - Approved For Release 2001/08/09 : SECRETQA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 Approved For Release 2ggibEIIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 Vertical transportation within the building is provided by an escalator serving the Ground and First Floors and four banks of four elevators each serving all floors. Since almost half of the space in the building is provided by the Ground and?First Floors, the single escalator can handle a considerable share of the morning and evening traffic. Elevators are the high-speed automatic self-operated type. In addition to the 16-passenger elevators, there are two freight elevators serving all floors. In the rear of the building two large loading docks are provided for incoming and outgoing mail, supplies, equipment, etc. One of these docks is used primarily to serve the Cafeteria and the Public Building Service. The building contains modern paper carrying devices. One of these is an automatic Pneumatic Tube System. This system is designed primarily for the movement of small quantities of correspondence type papers and is used where expeditious handling is essential. There are approximately 150 stations from any one of which material can be dispatched to - 293 - Approved For Release 200apiff-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 Approved For ReleaseSOMErf: CIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 or received from any other station. In addition to the Pneumatic Tube System, there is a tray conveyor system serving two stations on each floor and from these stations distribution can be made by courier to the surrounding areas. The tray conveyor system can handle bulky material such as magazines, books, newspapers, folders and even office supplies. Each tray can carry a 30-pound load. The system has a ca- pacity for picking up 8 trays per minute. Classified trash is destroyed by burning at two points in the basement of the building. Employees may deposit bagged classified trash in incinerator chutes at any of four points on each floor. Clocks controlled by a master clock are installed throughout the building, although not necessarily in every room. Alarm systems throughout the building are wired to a central control room. .? - 294 - Approved For Release 2001/08ggaMOP90-00708R0Q0300050001-1 *Mg mei Wig Approved For Release nearter CIA-RDP90-00708R000300050001-1 Figure 1 Appendix P Photographs Aerial view, original Headquarters area, 2430 E Street NW, Washington, D.
