Background
History
The Hatfield Marine Science Center was opened in 1965. The center was preceded by the Yaquina Bay Fisheries Laboratory, which was established in 1939 on the opposite side of Yaquina Bay. After several years of development, the Gladys Valley Marine Studies Building (MSB) was completed in summer 2020. The building hosts new office and laboratory space, a 250-seat auditorium and a cafe. The building provides a tsunami evacuation point for more than 900 people, including local residents, and it is designed to withstand a 9+ magnitude earthquake and an XXL tsunami event.
