IST是一栋面积162000平方英尺，椭圆形的两层楼建筑物，修建这栋建筑物将要花费6000万美元。建筑物中包括了科系和大学校长的办公室，当然还有教室空间和一个图书馆，这个图书馆因为不包含一本印刷的图书而成为了吸引人们兴趣的头条。设计建造建筑物的一楼时雇佣的是卡拉特拉瓦，在2009年的时候，就提到了定于2012年的完工日期和4500万美元的预算，大学的行政人员说建筑物并没有达到较近的时间线和项目预算。于夏天发布的早期的照片说明了卡拉特拉瓦赋予了佛罗里达科技大学一种建筑标志，这个标志可以被增加到咖啡杯或寄给高中生和他们父母的宣传册上。

学校的处理公共关系的员工尽了他们最大的努力去传播卡拉特拉瓦的酬金的故事，并且让很多记者们了解到卡拉特拉瓦的公司在这个项目中赚了1300万美元。这个位于湖泊地区的建筑物将会做更多复杂的工作，并以同行的角度去校正卡拉特拉瓦的设计安排，但是能做到什么程度将会是一个值得商榷的问题，而我将会飞往佛罗里达区尝试解决这个问题。佛罗里达科技大学崭新的校区是由国家立法机关的法案创造的，校园位于奥兰多西南部50公里远的农田中。

The IST is a 162,000-square-foot, oval-shaped, two-story building that cost $60 million to put up.It holds offices for faculty and the university’s president as well as classroom space and a library that has already attracted headlines for not including a single printed book. Though the first stories about Calatrava’s hiring, in 2009, mentioned a 2012 target date and budget of $45 million, university officials say the building did meet more recent timelines and cost projections.Early photographs released over the summer certainly made clear that Calatrava has given Florida Polytechnic the kind of architectural symbol that it can put on coffee mugs and the brochures it mails to high school students and their parents.

And the school’s PR staff has done its best to get out in front of any stories about Calatrava’s fee, freely letting reporters know that his firm earned $13 million for the project. To what extent the Lakeland building will do the more complicated work of recalibrating Calatrava’s place in the profession is a tougher question to answer, and one that I’d flown to Florida to try to answer.The brand-new campus of Florida Polytechnic University, created by an act of the state legislature, sits in what was very recently farmland about 50 miles southwest of Orlando.
