The Trump administration announced Tuesday that it is considering selling off hundreds of “non-core” federal properties, according to the General Services Administration.
The General Services Administration plans to sell hundreds of government buildings, including FBI headquarters. Use our interactive tools to see where they are—and the Congressional districts they're in.
But after the list was initially published, many buildings, including all in D.C. and most in Maryland and Virginia, were removed from the list Tuesday night without explanation, leaving only 320 properties. By Wednesday morning, the entire list was removed and a “coming soon” label added.
The General Services Administration (GSA) removed a list of 443 properties it was potentially looking to sell on Wednesday just a day after posting the listings. A page featuring a previously lengthy “non-core” property list now says a list will be “coming soon.
Lawmakers on the Hill, mostly Democrats, lashed at the GSA over its handling of lease terminations and that infamous disposal list.
President Donald Trump's administration said on Tuesday it was considering selling some of the U.S. government's most iconic properties, including the headquarters of the Department of Justice, the FBI and the building that once housed Trump's luxury hotel.
The GSA can dispose of a property by transferring it to another federal agency, turning it into space for homeless assistance programs, negotiating a sale to a state or local government, or selling it at full market value.
The General Services Administration already has removed an online list of more than 400 “non-core” federal properties it said it wanted to sell off.
