NIST Meeting Site

 

  • The National Institute of Standards and Technology headquarters is located on a 234-hectares site in Gaithersburg, Maryland, approximately 25 miles from downtown Washington, D.C. NIST has long been known for the beauty of its grounds. The complex consists of an 11-story Administration building and numerous special purpose laboratories. Click here for a brief history of NIST.
  • The Administration Building houses most meeting and dining facilities. Also located in the Administration building is the library, small museum, and a standards vault, all of which contain memorabilia from nearly 100 years of service as the Government's primary science and technology research facility. From the museum, a graceful glassed-in walkway leads from the first floor library area to the dining and meeting room areas. One can exit the walkway and step out into the central courtyard, a pleasant open area with small fountain and pool, a large weeping beech tree, and other landscaping.
