USDA Announces Sale of South Building in Washington, D.C.

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) is set to sell its flagship South Building in Washington, D.C., as part of a broader initiative to consolidate office space and relocate employees to various locations across the country. Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins, along with officials from the General Services Administration (GSA), has announced this decision, emphasizing that it is expected to unlock significant savings for taxpayers. The building, which is a massive 2.2 million square feet and has undergone recent renovations, will be offloaded despite these updates. This move is seen as part of the ongoing efforts by the Trump Administration to streamline federal operations and reallocate resources effectively.
