New Money Home Plan For Bureau Buildings At Capitol
Secretary Cortelyou proposes a new site and five story main building with a steel frame to house the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Total project would cost about 2,975,000 with the site at 4,250,000 and additional annex and power facilities estimated at 1,000,000. The plan argues existing quarters are crowded and schedules extend to 7 a m to 7 p m with night shifts, and remodeling old buildings is deemed costly and park plans on the Mall could be hindered.
