Reaching the Whiteley Center

What to bring, what's here

The Center consists of eight buildings on the Friday Harbor Laboratories campus, located along the shoreline on San Juan Island just north of Puget Sound.

The primary building is the Whiteley Study Building, comprised of four individual studies and a central lounge.  The lounge, a place for interaction with other scholars from the Center and the Laboratories, has comfortable seating before a massive fireplace, connection by short paths with FHL's library and administration building, and views across the bay to Friday Harbor town and eastward across the channel to the Cascade mountains. 

Each of the four studies is suitable for individuals or small groups of collaborators.  Each is endowed with comfortable chairs, desks, tables, a fireplace and artwork.  All open out through sliding doors to decks and patios overlooking the harbor and thereby connect to trails along the shore and through the forest..  One is equipped with a piano. The studies are wired for ethernet connections to the internet.

The naming of the studies may be of interest.
