Federal Flat To Fall
NIH Apartment House Must Yield To New Hospital Construction
By Rich McManus
The hopeful spray of purple irises at its front stoop notwithstanding,
Apartment Bldg. 20, which since 1954 has been home to NIH

panjandrums of various stripe, will yield to the wrecking ball around
Oct. 1. Rendered nearly charmless and irrelevant by its position in
the shadow of its mammoth neighbor across the street -- the Clinical
Center is allegedly one of the world's largest brick structures --
Bldg. 20 lies in the way of construction associated with the new
Hatfield Clinical Research Center.
