CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - The Propellants North Administrative and Maintenance Facility at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida is coming together in the Launch Complex 39 area. New energy-efficient windows recently were installed and up next will be the installation of solar panels. The green facility will have a two-story administrative building to house managers, mechanics and technicians who fuel spacecraft at Kennedy adjacent to a single-story shop to store cryogenic fuel transfer equipment. The facility is striving to qualify for the U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design, or LEED, Platinum certification. If successful, it will be the first NASA facility to achieve this highest of LEED ratings after it is completed in December 2010. The facility was designed for NASA by Jones Edmunds and Associates. H. W. Davis Construction is the construction contractor. Photo credit: NASA_Kim Shiflett
