The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) opened its new campus in St. Louis on September 26. The cutting-edge facility is a modern and collaborative workspace in support of NGA’s dynamic and evolving national security mission, according to the agency.
NGA Director VADM Frank Whitworth hosted the ceremony and was joined by the Hon. Tulsi Gabbard, director of national intelligence, and the Hon. Brad Hansel, principal deputy under secretary of war for intelligence and security. Speakers included Missouri Gov. Mike Kehoe, St. Louis Mayor Cara Spencer, Chair of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence Rep. Rick Crawford, Rep. Ann Wagner, Rep. Wesley Bell and former Senator Roy Blunt. The event marked the culmination of years of planning and investment in a facility poised to help transform the geospatial landscape for the next 100 years.
“This state-of-the-art facility is a critical investment in our nation’s security. From this campus, our dedicated workforce will continue to deliver vital GEOINT that protects our nation and supports our warfighters around the world,” Whitworth remarked.
Located at the corner of Jefferson and Cass Avenues, the new NGA campus anchors a growing geospatial ecosystem from the heart of north St. Louis. The strategic location positions NGA to continue its strong partnership with civic institutions, academia and industry. For a short video of the new facility, visit:
