It's design-build. But the design phase will be part of the red line phase at closeout.

I have other questions too, as are the footings rated for a structure that size. Is the bunker designed to have that much weight above it? Why does this feel like an assault on America and women as it's the first lady's offices and public facing entrance?

You and me both. My first thought was that when the East Wing was built/renovated, it was constructed to match the existing building. Windows, trim, etc. could have been salvaged and stored for routine maintenance on the other buildings

LOL. Privately they fume. Publicly the all bend the knee. Maybe they should start working for the people who elected them instead?

A friend said she once used a hockey puck (new, cleaned, and frozen of course) in an emergency for her baby to teethe on. 😂

If I had a nickel for every time Trump tried to murder his Vice President, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

As someone in the transportation industry, this pisses me off to no end. And this administration wanted to perform these drills without closing the highway?

Oh, this could be the funniest thing mirroring the March of Dimes startup...

Thousands of dimes roll are received daily at the White House during the March of Dimes campaign. President Franklin Roosevelt founded the March of Dime fight Polio on January 3, 1938.

What a fun build. Instantly brought back memories of trying to find a well lit spot to play. The click for the on/off is perfection and I waited for the chime.

Sure, Jan. All I hear is them continually blaming Biden, Biden, Biden when we're now nine months deep into this current administration and they still refuse to provide solutions.
