Active GSA office footprints in the DC Metro region

Under the current administration's emphasis on reducing government spending through the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), the sustainability of GSA leases nationwide is being reassessed, with many leases deemed unnecessary. On a positive note, the remaining GSA leases in the DC Metro area should expect to see an increase in return-to-office activity with more initiatives for federal workers coming into effect.

It's no secret that the DC submarkets house the largest concentration of GSA leases, but potential lease terminations could create ripple effects across Northern Virginia and Suburban Maryland. With Northern Virginia hosting a significant GSA presence across multiple submarkets, these regions could experience a disproportionate impact as future changes unfold.
