MEMORANDUM FOR: Director of Central Intelligence
SUBJECT : Temporary Removal of In-Town Office from
East Building
REFERENCE : Memo dtd 23 Apr 63 to DCI fr DD/S, same subject
1. In accordance with your instructions we have attempted to locate
office space for you in the Executive Office Building and have been advised
by the White House (Bromley Smith), as well as the Commissioner, Public
Buildings Service, that no space is available. The office formerly used by
General Maxwell Taylor is now occupied by a study group from the White
House. Furthermore, we believe it would be necessary to obtain at least
three additional adjacent rooms in order to accommodate your needs. Both
the White House and PBS consider this to be impossible.
2. The White House suggested that space might be available on
Jackson Place where some buildings have been vacated. However, the Com-
missioner, PBS advises that demolition wort here will be started almost
immediately.
3. The Commissioner, PBS offered to lease commercial space for
us, but we did not pursue this since we felt i_t would not he acceptable from
a security point of view.
4. Since the Matomic Building is not acceptable, we suggest that we
retain the present facilities in East Building and take every precaution to
assure ourselves of access at all times.
