The U.S. Government currently occupies office and related space in a building
under a lease in Robinson, IL, that will be expiring. The Government is
considering alternative space if economically advantageous. In making this
determination, the Government will consider, among other things, the availability
of alternative space that potentially can satisfy the Government’s requirements,

costs, replication of tenant improvements and telecommunication infrastructure,
and non-productive agency downtime.
