About the Inouye Regional Center
The Daniel K. Inouye Regional Center
“Located on a national historic landmark site on Oahu’s Ford Island, NOAA’s Inouye Regional Center features the adaptive reuse of two World War II-era airplane hangars linked by a new steel and glass building. The original hangars, designed in 1939 by Albert Kahn, inspired beautifully simple solutions for how the new Center uses air, water and light.
The new complex accommodates 715 people in a high-performance research and office campus that integrates NOAA’s mission of “science, service and stewardship” with regional culture and ecology. It houses a diverse range of critical programs, functions and federal departments, including the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center.”1
