The GED Administration Building (Building 65) was completed early in 2002 to provide office space for the Office of the Director and Program Operations Staff, a visitor reception center, a modern lunch room, one large, 30 ft. x 50 ft (or sub-divided into two smaller rooms) conference room, two 10 ft. x 20 ft. conference rooms, and a computer training room. Because of location and function, the new building serves as an important hub for many research and administrative activities for GED staff. By design, the cascading effect of moving personnel into this new facility on making quality office space available to technical staff allowed GED to follow a master plan for the facility and remove four unsightly, high energy consuming, and high maintenance temporary buildings from the facility. Also by design, the new facility is very energy efficient, using green lighting, solar panel for domestic heating water, sky lighting, and modern insulating materials plus energy and maintenance saving on older, eliminated buildings, the cost of construction should be returned in the foreseeable future. In addition to function and cost savings, the new building adds to the facility by maintaining the exterior architecture of the late 1800s and by facilitating removal of unsightly buildings
