 Pentagon Renovation Program   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
Early in the planning process, it was determined that the most efficient way to renovate the Pentagon while keeping the building operational for its 25,000 tenants was to relocate one fifth of the building’s personnel from their current location in the Pentagon into temporary offices, or swing space, in and around the building.
Because full connectivity from external swing space to the Pentagon is so critical, three main external swing space buildings have been built-out with classified and unclassified telecommunications backbones, local area networks, telephone lines, and electronic mail.
During this past year, approximately 120,000 square feet of swing space was identified within the Pentagon and assigned to Wedge 2 tenants not slated to move into Wedge 1.
