Letter

Dear Mr. Cyrus:

During its meeting of 15 May, the Commission reviewed the design of a new Material Testing Laboratory for the District of Columbia, located at 414 Farragut Street, NE. The project showed a refreshing strength of design with its inventive massing, material choice and use of color. The proposal was approved unanimously.

The Commission looks forward to the review of other well-articulated designs for the District of Columbia and commends the District government on its efforts to provide interesting and respectful additions to the community.

Sincerely,

/s/
Harry G. Robinson III, FAIA
