Acopian Center Hawk Mountain Sanctuary

The Acopian Center at Hawk Mountain Sanctuary in Kempton, PA offers unique facilities for visiting professors, the international interns working at the Sanctuary and the visiting public. The main Center building holds the library, research facilities and meeting spaces. Two other buildings house rooming facilities for interns and apartments for visiting professors. The grounds around the Center offer several trails for birdwatching and a wetland for handling stormwater from the facilities. The Sanctuary used many green building techniques to construct the buildings at the Center, including reuse of local building materials, energy efficient designs, ground source heating and using building materials with recycled content.
