Standing in front of two boats—one adorned with a banner sporting the logo for Stony Brook University’s School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences—elected officials, students, faculty and members of the community at large gathered on Friday afternoon in Shinnecock Hills to celebrate the groundbreaking for a new multimillion-dollar Marine Sciences Center to be constructed at Stony Brook Southampton.

The Stony Brook Marine Sciences Center, which will replace three old buildings on Little Neck Road, off Old Fort Pond and just south of the main campus, has a price tag of about $8.35 million—a cost that will be mostly borne by New York State, according to James Montalto, the media relations manager for Stony Brook University. The state will be paying $6.9 million, he said.

... looks beautiful, great addition. Now release the choke hold Stony Brook has on the campus across the street and build a state college with concentrations in the fine arts, marine sciences and hotel/restaurant/hospitality management. The place would be "sold out " upon completion and might do something to help alleviate the twenty six empty stores in downtown Southampton.
