Completion of the new Rosenstiel School of Marine and Atmospheric Science complex on Virginia Key was delayed by about six months, Miami Today reported. Construction of the 86,000-square-foot facility began in June 2012. A Rosenstiel professor cited the complexity of the project as the primary reason for falling behind schedule.

Features include sea water intakes, holding tanks, salt water pumping and filtration systems and a 40,000-gallon wave tank. The new complex allows the school to consolidate offices and labs that were spread out in three buildings. [Miami Today] — Eric Kalis
