The U.S. General Services Administration has appointed Nina M. Albert, the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority’s former top real estate official, as commissioner of GSA’s Public Buildings Service, a key federal construction agency.
PBS is responsible for the design and construction of courthouses, land ports of entry—major border stations—and other federal buildings. It also has an extensive program of buildings renovations.
Gaining funding from Congress for those programs will be among the challenges Albert will face in her new post.
