Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would bar any public building in the District of Columbia from being demolished, in whole or in part, or substantially altered unless Congress expressly authorizes it. Before such a demolition, the site would need an approved and finalized construction plan. The bill defines a substantial alteration as one that affects a building's structural integrity, significantly changes its historical character, or exceeds certain thresholds in federal law. It also expands the National Capital Planning Commission's review to include substantial alterations and adds architectural integrity to the matters the Commission considers.
