Federal Office Space: Comparison of Construction Costs for New Judiciary and Navy Buildings
In February 1991, the General Accounting Office was asked to compare the construction costs of the Judiciary office building, which is being built by the Architect of the Capitol next to Union Station in Washington, D.C., and an office complex that the General Services Administration (GSA) had planned for the Naval Systems Commands in Northern Virginia. The GSA Administrator announced in late March that, because of congressional concerns over possible costs, GSA halted bidding on the Navy project and will restart the process after the government acquires the site for the project. GAO's objective was to compare the estimated construction costs of the Judiciary office building and the Naval Systems Commands office complex. Because the buildings are of different size, we calculated each project's estimated costs per square foot three different ways: (1) total gross space, (2) gross office space, and (3) occupiable office space. Gross square footage incorporates all space in a building, including offices, parking, and mechanical equipment rooms.
