 This picture shows the elevated dorm, which is a second place for people to sleep. It has about 70 beds and was built as a prototype for the new elevated station that is currently being built and expected to be completed by 2005. I did the construction plans and went to the South Pole to help build it in 1991 while I was working for Winter Panel  Brattleboro, Vt. It is the only building with solar panels on all four sides. Twenty four hours of sun at the South Pole.
