The Salk Institute campus represents a unique blend of form and function. The campus supports 61 faculty members and a scientific staff of more than 850 doing powerful biological research. Jonas Salk had a distinctive vision for the creation of the Institute. In the early 1960s, he directed the world-renowned architect Louis Kahn to provide spacious, unobstructed laboratory spaces that could be adapted to the ever-changing needs of science. In 1992, the Salk received a 25-Year Award from the American Institute of Architects (AIA) and is now designated as an historical site.

                               Meet at:  2660 Calhoun Street, San Diego, CA 

 

Based on the Secretary of Interior's Standards, California State Parks spent 6 years on its rehabilitation as an historic hotel. Old Town San Diego’s Cosmopolitan Hotel is an 1827 adobe remodeled to an 1870's hotel. Its rehabilitation required cooperation between archaeologists, historic architects, adobe conservators, paint analysts, antique furnishing specialists, and many others. Project archaeologists and architects showcase joint findings. Two kinds of vocabulary, two kinds of record keeping, and two kinds of photo protocols were blended in an unprecedented look at one of California’s 19th century buildings.
