Boeing to move defense HQ to D.C. area

In order to deepen its customer outreach, Boeing is moving its Defense, Space & Security business unit to Crystal City, Va. The headquarters will be across a highway from the Pentagon.

The move will take place in January, according to a company spokesperson.

Boeing anticipates potentially moving more than 50 employees from its current headquarters in St. Louis, Miss.

The company sees its existing location in Crystal City, Va., to be a better fit for deepening its outreach to customers in the Pentagon and NASA as well as stakeholders on the Hill and in the administration, the spokesperson said.
