Patriotic displays featured at 263 GSA-managed locations, including 27 in the District of Columbia
WASHINGTON - Today, the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) celebrates America's 250th anniversary with a nationwide effort to install patriotic displays in more than 250 federal buildings and leased spaces across all 50 states and U.S. territories.
"GSA is proud to support President Trump, the Freedom 250 Task Force, and our nation's Independence Day celebrations by exhibiting Freedom 250 decorations across the country," said GSA Administrator Edward C. Forst. "From small-town courthouses to iconic landmarks in our biggest cities, GSA is elevating the 250th anniversary for all freedom-loving Americans."
In less than six months, GSA partnered with industry, designers, historians, suppliers, client agencies, and local teams to design, produce, and install patriotic banners, bunting, and flags at locations serving communities every day across the U.S.
This showcase is part of Freedom 250 efforts to inspire renewed admiration for American history and spotlighting federal buildings as enduring symbols of public service and civic pride.
Earlier this year, GSA introduced its 250 Commemorative Star Mark and a Freedom 250 cornerstone in the U.S. Courthouse in Huntsville, Alabama.
