  • Review this attraction
  • At one of the most famous buildings in San Diego (see Salk Institute), twin six-story laboratories comprised of teak panels, concrete and glass stand across from each other, separated by a smooth marble courtyard with a channel of water running down the middle. Note architect Louis Kahn’s use of “interstitial” space: mechanical devices between floors can change laboratory configurations.

Practical Information
10010 N. Torrey Pines Rd (858) 453-4100 Open 9am–5pm Mon–Fri www.salk.edu
