FREDERIC V. MALEK WEST POINT VISITORS CENTER
About the project
West Point is a national treasure. Situated on the Hudson River, it has served our nation for over 150 years by developing leaders of character for the United States Army. A new 10,000 square foot Visitors Center incorporates multi-media, hands-on, immersive and traditional exhibit experiences to assist visitors in understanding West Point’s innovative approach to developing leaders. As opportunities to tour the Academy are limited, the center provides visitors with a sense of the physical beauty and power of its setting, along with a very personal sense of what cadet life is like. Visitors come away with a powerful sense of the iconic tradition and forward-looking importance of the Long Gray Line.
