Federal government cancels costly, decade-long search for a new FBI headquarters
The federal government is canceling the search for a new FBI headquarters, according to officials familiar with the decision, putting a more than decade-long search by the bureau to move out of the crumbling J. Edgar Hoover Building back at square one.
The decision follows years of failed attempts by federal officials to convince Congress to fully back a plan for a campus in the Washington suburbs paid for by trading away the Hoover Building to a real estate developer and putting up nearly $2 billion in taxpayer funds to cover the remaining cost.
Officials from the General Services Administration, which handles federal real estate, plan to announce the cancellation in a phone call with bidders and meetings on Capitol Hill Tuesday morning, said the officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to disclose the decision before it was announced.
