Development of a Remote Station Architecture 2. PREFACE The author, Joseph Ferraro, AlA, has been involved in the design of laboratory and support buildings at McMurdo Station, Antarctica, since 1984. Together with Lee Davis, AlA, he directed the programming and design of the Replacement Science Facility, later renamed the Albert P. Crary Science and Engineering Center, while a principal at The CJS Group Architects, Ltd. The center was opened and dedicated on November 7, 1991 after seven years of development. The building combines the needs of several different scientific disciplines in a single structure which has planned expansion capabilities. The structure replaces outmoded buildings erected in the 1950’s for the First International Geophysical Year Scientific Conference. In 1988 Mr. Ferraro co-founded a new firm, Ferraro Choi And Associates, Ltd., where he and Mr. Davis continue design work for the National Science Foundation at McMurdo Station and Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station, Antarctica. He has continued his architectural education at the University of Hawaii after receiving his professional license and has prepared this paper for a graduate directed studies course at the School of Architecture.Proceed to next section: 3.
