Homeland Security And Sprawl

"The Bush administration claims it is for smart growth. But on its most critical growth choice yet--a headquarters location for the new Department of Homeland Security--it's careening into sprawl and traffic congestion...Do we want our leading public buildings to be located in a proud and monumental national capital? Or, are we about to opt instead for isolated suburban buildings--the kind of anonymous structures that could just as well serve as offices for dot-com programmers or plastic surgeons?...Any self-respecting terrorist...can hit a suburban target just as easily as one in the federal capital."
