When ratifying DC you can make it a state however federalize the Capitol properties and a few block radius. It would make no sense honestly. Just split DC in half between Maryland and Virginia. And make only a few block radius of the capitol a federal district.

My solution re: DC Statehood; Give the City back to Maryland or Virginia (whichever State that has the historical claim) and retain the White House, Capital and all other Federal Buildings as Federal Grounds.

HR51 includes a provision for keeping a federal district containing the White House, U.S. Capitol, other federal buildings, the National Mall, and its monuments, which is in keeping with Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution.
Now this does raise interesting 23rd Amendment issues.
