U.S. Sens. Claire McCaskill and Roy Blunt have written a letter to the director of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency showcasing their “strong support” of keeping the agency’s western headquarters in Missouri. 

The agency is replacing its facility south of the Anheuser-Busch brewery. They are choosing between four potential sites (three in Missouri, one in Illinois): Fenton (the site of the old Chrysler plant along Interstate 44); Mehlville (at the Met Life facility on Tesson Ferry Road, between Interstate 270 and Highway 141); north St. Louis (the site of the old Pruitt-Igoe housing complex near Cass and Jefferson avenues); and St. Clair County (site adjacent to Scott Air Force Base along Interstate 64).
