The new building site is the current location of the Old Faithful Visitor Center adjacent to the Old Faithful geyser and Old Faithful Inn.

Separate contractors will be installing exhibits and bookstore furnishings in the new Old Faithful Visitor Education facility during the final stages of this project.
