On Tuesday the General Services Administration (GSA) published a list of more than 400 federal buildings and real estate, including the FBI headquarters, which Department of Housing and Urban Developmentthe Ministry of Justice and other important states Facilities. Hours later, 123 buildings, including top -class locations such as the building of J. Edgar Hoover and Veterans Administration in Washington, DC, were removed from the list. The entire list of the GSA website had disappeared by Wednesday.
WIRED has created a card and a searchable table of state real estate that were offered for sale and briefly listed, which also contains corresponding political representatives for each location.
WIRED Cross-references two data records to create the card: the list of the ānon-coreā treasures originally published by the GSA and then removed and then removed and the inventory of the ownership and rental objects (IOLP). The GSA defines non-core real estate as buildings and institutions that are ānon-central importance for government transactionsā, and in a press release via the list argued that sales would provide āsavings for the American taxpayerā. The IOLP, a publicly accessible database, offers detailed information about GSA ownership and rental objects in the USA, Puerto Rico, Guam and American Samoa.
On the properties, originally known as Ludwig Mies van der Rohe von Chicago, which by John C. Kluczynski, and the Custom House, an Art -deco building that occupies a city block in Philadelphia in the old town of Philadelphia. The less prominent, but still remarkable buildings include the Martinsburg Computing Center in Kearnysville, West Virginia, in which the IRS is described as āindividual and corporate management databaseā and which is described, and the Central heating plant In Washington, DC, which heated state buildings, museums and national monuments and provides cooled water. (The GSA has now claimed that not all buildings are for sale, but the agency has repeatedly changed its melody in various internal documents and communications in the employees.)
The GSA, an independent government agency, manages the IT of the government and a significant part of the federal camp. In the past few weeks, the agency has been decimated by forced resignation and reduction in forces, including the elimination of 18f, a GSA unit that focuses on the efficiency of the government. The public building service of the GSA (PBS) is Reports Plant to reduce 63 percent of its workforce, a total of around 3,600 people. Elon Musk employees are staffed throughout the GSA, including the director of Technology Transformation Services Thomas Shedd, a former Tesla engineer, and X employees from X, Nicole Hollander. A number of Young Doge technologists Also have access to the agency.
Wired registered in February The GSA employees were instructed to sell more than 500 federal buildings, including real estate, governmental authorities and the offices of the US sensors. The list of these buildings divided the real estate into āKernā and ānon -coreā assets and described the ānon -coreā assets for sold.
A note on the original list states that the agencyās intention is to reduce the āsize of property in real estate footprint by 50 percent and the number of buildings by 70 percent. The reduction in the non-core general office space of the portfolio, which can be replaced on the private rented market as needed, focus on the non-korious office space. In the future, all non-core buildings will be disposed of and their tenants will be converted into rental contracts. ā
