Excerpt:

The DC Dept. of General Services (DGS) has issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the design and construction of a flexible structure on the St Elizabeths East campus to serve a wide range of interim uses and allow visitors to experience the site before redevelopment is complete. 

Envisioned as a destination for casual dining, as well as a venue for hosting a farmers' market and other weekend and afterhours, community, cultural and arts events, the Gateway Pavilion will host a number of small vendors/food stalls, food trucks and other mobile vendors, shared seating for patrons, and support facilities including storage and restroom spaces. 

The Gateway Pavilion will aim to serve as an interim - believed to be 2 to 5 years - heart of the East Campus, drawing pedestrian traffic from the West Campus, the Congress Heights neighborhood, and the adjacent Congress Heights Metro station.
