Building 4200 at Redstone Arsenal, where Wernher von Braun’s team designed the rocket that took America to the moon, will be leveled 'to make way for a series of new, state-of-the-art facilities.'
Building 4200 on Redstone Arsenal will be leveled at 7:30 a.m. “to make way for a series of new, state-of-the-art facilities tailored to help NASA map out the next century’s worth of discoveries in space,” writer Rick Smith said on the agency’s website. Smith, a Manufacturing Technical Solutions employee, supports Marshall’s Office of Strategic Analysis & Communications.
“That decision tugs a lot of heartstrings here,” Smith said in the Marshall story. “The building was home to thousands of Marshall team members over much of six decades.” Now, Marshall is putting new technology, energy saving materials and more open floor plans into a complex of modern buildings in the same general area. The vision is “a bustling, modern campus atmosphere, loosely centralized around the evolving 4200 complex and its counterpart to the south, the 4600 engineering complex,” Smith said in the NASA story. A greenway connecting the two will encourage walking from complex to complex.
