Description

The purpose of this award is to fund a Fiscal Year (FY) 2026 Federal-State Partnership for Intercity Passenger Rail – Congressional Directed Spending (CDS) grant for the Washington Union Station Exterior Lighting Upgrade Project (the Project). The Washington Union Station Exterior Lighting Upgrade Project funds Construction and will enhance public safety/security, lighting uniformity, the public experience, and station identity through improvements to the exterior lighting of the historic facade. Lighting will be significantly enhanced at the main entrance elevation facing Columbus Circle and along the exterior colonnade. The main entrance elevation will be illuminated with new, focused light-emitting diode (LED) fixtures mounted to streetlight poles and in-ground up lights, linear lighting at the ziggurats, and discreet spotlights to highlight the statues. The Union Station Redevelopment Corporation (USRC) is the only eligible entity able to apply.
