Ed Marley
Project Architect

This 37,000  SF addition to the Steward Observatory complex on the University of Arizona Campus houses administrative offices for Steward Observatory and the Department of Astronomy.  The addition contains a 240 seat state-of-the-art lecture theater, library, research offices, electronics laboratories, computer rooms, and clean rooms.  Laboratories in the environmentally controlled core of the building are surrounded by offices enclosed by a glazed perimeter skin.  A more recent addition, also designed by Swaim Associates,  provides a fifth floor for additional faculty offices.  This addition was constructed while the entire facility remained in operation.
