Creating the Campus
Restoring the Waterfront

Between June 2010 and March 2011, Exploratorium Board Member Scott Hindes photographed the initial construction at Pier 15. Much of this work was focused on repairing, strengthening, and retrofitting existing structures and supports, particularly beneath the piers.

Plan view of Piers 15/17, showing an outline of both buildings and the surrounding concrete deck. Together, the two buildings, including the “valley” between them, will make up the Exploratorium’s new nine-acre campus, with Pier 15 serving as home to the new Exploratorium.
