Gates Computer Science Building, Stanford, Computer science research building at Stanford University, United States
The L-shaped Gates Computer Science Building spans 150,000 square feet with two wings housing research laboratories and academic facilities at Stanford University.
Completed in 1996 at a cost of 38 million dollars, the structure received a 6-million-dollar contribution from Microsoft founder Bill Gates for its construction.
The building exhibits showcase Stanford's computing innovations, including historical equipment and documents highlighting the early Computer Science Department under George Forsythe.
