$1.2B Project Readies for Final Stretch

SPRINGFIELD, VA-The last pieces to an ambitious $1.2-billion development that will consolidate six National Geospatial Intelligence Agency offices in one headquarter campus are falling into place. First, there was the recent selection of the construction management contractor–joint venture of Clark and Balfour Beatty. Now, the schematic design phase–the final phase–under a joint venture of RTKL and KlingStubbins is about to begin.

RTKL and KlingStubbins received the mandate from US Army Corps of Engineers, Baltimore District, in March 2006. The design process is expected to be complete in late 2008, with construction completion estimated for fall 2011. The new campus will be approximately 755,000 sf and sited on roughly 127 acres near Springfield.
