Combine with Maryland.  There is no need for the federal government to own the area its buildings are on and there is no need for an arbitrary state in the middle of Maryland.

Of course there is. Maryland shouldn't have that kind of influence.

The influence to have apartment buildings in the surrounding area be under its jurisdiction?

Maryland wouldn't have any influence over the actual affairs.
