I was impressed by the environmental and energy conservation measures taken in the design and construction of the building. Capt. Dunleavy himself led our tour, and Lt. Crystal McLain, who was project manager gave us a lot of background information while we were waiting for the group ahead of us to finish up. I know there are many who spoke about high cost, but I absolutely think we got our moneys worth. Note that this is not funded by general taxation money. Capt. Dunleavy pointed out that the Navigation Safety Fund comes from boat registration fees. If you don't register a boat, none of your money goes to the MP, or the Navigation Safety Fund or the new HQ.
