This would be awful, please no.

East St. Louis. Close to center of population, historic significance  (border of the "West"), in need of revitalisation.

An alternative would be to take the full consequence of the fact that America's future lies in the Pacific and move the capital to the West Coast. San Diego is the most attractive of those cities and within reasonable distance of Texas.

San Diego is on the border with Mexico.

If we somehow needed to move the capital, I think we should do what we did the first time and build an entirely new city. 

Hence East St. Louis.

No one cares about Hawaii except the Hawaiians, who at 1/300th of the population should not be the tail wagging the dog.

I was assuming DC vanished or something.
