The Eugene Young Environmental Center is designed to function as a giant display case. The glass walls will allow visitors to look in at posters and objects on display, even when the building itself is not open, or is open only for the end that has the rest room, with the main room closed to protect the exhibits. But glass walls have to be held up by something, and that's what you see installed here at the start of September: the vertical steel slats into which plate glass will be mounted, much as in plate-glass storefronts.
