It's been a long time in the making, but RTKL and KlingStubbins are
getting closer to the completion of the new Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) campus in White Oak, Maryland. They were
selected in 1996, in conjunction with Kling to design the campus
set to accommodate approximately 9,000 employees, an 80 percent
increase.
In the past 12 years, many buildings have already been completed,
including the Center for Drugs Evaluation and Research (CDER), a
laboratory for Life Science, another for Engineering Physics, and a
shared-use building which houses a cafeteria, meeting rooms and a
library. Still under construction are the offices of the Center of
Devices and Radiological Evaluation (CDRH), as well as the offices
for the Office of Commissioner and Office of Regulatory
Affairs.
The project was selected by the General Services Administration
"Design Excellence" program to design a new consolidated
headquarters. The Design Excellence program was created by the GSA
in order to receive a higher quality of proposals from submitting
companies
The design team created a master plan which grouped buildings
around a series of courtyards and a great central lawn creating a
pedestrian environment in the spirit of the great universities and
campuses of the world.
The campus is set for completion in 2012.
