Letter
Dear Ms. Williams:
The staff of the Commission of Fine Arts has reviewed the final plans for the proposed new above-grade garage and associated landscape to be located at Gate 7 (formerly Gate 6) on the historic St. Elizabeths West Campus, the headquarters of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. The staff has no objections to the final plans for this project, which conform with the previously approved concept design.
With the authority delegated by the Commission at its meeting of 16 April 2026, we approve the final submission as documented in the supplemental materials received and dated 24 June 2026. If there are any changes to the project, please contact the staff to determine if additional review will be required. As always, the staff is available to assist you with future submissions.
Sincerely,
/s/Thomas E. Luebke, FAIA
