The new Main Gate and Visitor Center at NASA’s Neil A. Armstrong Test Facility serves as the secure 24/7 entry point to NASA Glenn Research Center. Designed to meet federal security requirements while creating a distinctive campus identity, the building’s simple form and glowing presence reflect the relationship between earth and space. The project includes a visitor center, main gate canopy, vehicle inspection building, parking, access drives, crash-resistant fencing, and K-rated barriers. Designed with sustainability at its core, the project emphasizes energy efficiency, daylighting, and stormwater management. In addition to LEED Gold Certification, the facility was designed to support Net-Zero Energy goals through a high-performance envelope and efficient building systems.
