#1 Cyrstal City is it? Well, the real estate costs, lower taxes, excellent schools, crime free metro, less than an hour away from Iranian Interest Section located (Embassy of Pakistan), and easy motoring are certainly huge draws.

#3 That's ugly BP. St.Louis that is. I wouldn't do that even to a bunch of uniformed careerists. Maybe, Kansas City or a suburb.

#5 Disclaimer-I am a Boeing employee in defense. This move was in the works for a long time. Leanne Caret is a pretty dynamic leader that understand St Louis is not where Boeing needs to be. St Louis used to be the home for Army aviation. That changed years ago and Boeing is one of the last to pull chocs and move.

#6 Well Pan, if you're TDY to Crystal City and enjoy Greek cuisine, try Athena Pallac on 22nd Street. Ask for Geo or Khya.

#7 Keep DoD in DC if you must.

But move HUD to Cabrini-Green, or to Pruitt-Igoe...

#13 Decentralize the government? Move Interior to Denver. Ag to Chicago. Treasury to NYC. Energy to Houston. Transportation to Memphis. NSA to Salt Lake City. State to St Louis, put the UN in East St Louis. What would go in San Fran, Atlanta, Boston, Miami, Dallas, Seattle

#14 Nothing to San Francisco. The housing is too expensive and the street light poles are falling apart from being urinated on.
