Tucson Office Construction, 1983

Description

In September 1984, NRAO's Tucson office moved from space in an industrial park on Forbes Boulevard on the west side of Tucson to the top floor of Steward Observatory's newly built addition on the University of Arizona campus. After 10 years in the industrial park, NRAO staff now were able to interact with Arizona's astronomy department, enjoy easy access to dining halls, University facilities, and other amenities in the area around campus - and had a shower for the many staff bicycle commuters. In this Polaroid photo, probably taken in 1983, Jeff Kingsley (left), Dale Webb (center), and another (unidentified) staff member, monitor the progress of the construction.
