flag USDA is leaving its D.C. South Building, moving 2,000 workers to regional offices by year's end due to high vacancy and maintenance costs.

flag The USDA is vacating its South Building on the National Mall, transferring it to the GSA for sale amid high vacancy and a $1.6 billion maintenance backlog. flag The move, driven by cost-cutting and efficiency efforts, will relocate about 2,000 employees to regional hubs in cities like Raleigh, Kansas City, and Salt Lake City by year’s end. flag The reorganization, part of a broader federal downsizing initiative, aims to reduce the department’s D.C. footprint and improve operations, with phased transitions to comply with legal and union requirements.
