National Museum of the United States Navy at Washington Navy Yard

cancelled

The U.S. Navy planned to build a new National Museum of the United States Navy at the Washington Navy Yard by 4th and M streets SE. The project involved a land swap deal with Redbrick LMD, where the Navy would receive land for the museum in exchange for land on another part of the campus for private development by Redbrick. The Navy withdrew from the land swap citing security concerns related to sensitive work at the Navy Yard, evolving national security threats, and force protection. The Navy remains committed to the museum project despite withdrawing from the land swap.
