In addition to these academic departments, the Stata Center has a fitness center, a childcare center, and a memorial to the former MIT building 20, which stood at this site for 55 years until it was demolished in 1998. When the building opened in 2004, Pulitzer Prize-winning critic Robert Campbell wrote in the Boston Globe that the building is "a work of architecture that embodies serious thinking about how people live and work, and at the same time shouts the joy of invention.The Stata Center is home to the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory ( CSAIL), the Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems ( LIDS), and the Department of Linguistics and Philosophy. Its striking design-featuring tilting towers, many-angled walls and whimsical shapes-challenges much of the conventional wisdom of laboratory and campus building. The building is home to the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL), the Laboratory for Information and Decision Systems (LIDS) and the Department of Linguistics and Philosophy.
Gehry, the Stata Center is meant to carry on Building 20's innovative and serendipitous spirit, and to foster interaction and collaboration across many disciplines. The Ray and Maria Stata Center for Computer, Information and Intelligence Sciences is built on the site of MIT's legendary Building 20, a "temporary" timber-framed building constructed during World War II that served as a breeding ground for many of the great ideas that were born at MIT. Frank Gehry lives in Santa Monica and works from his offices in Los Angeles, California.

He has been widely recognized and honored, receiving the Arnold W. As a teacher, Gehry has held the Charlotte Davenport Professorship in Architecture at Yale University, the Eliot Noyes Chair at Harvard University, and was a visiting scholar at the Federal Institute of Technology in Zürich, Switzerland.
A few highlights of his many works are Venice Beach House, California Gehry House, Santa Monica, California Guggenheim Museum, Bilbao, Spain Walt Disney Concert Hall, Los Angeles Fishdance Restaurant, Kobe, Japan Chiat/Day Office building, Venice, California Dancing House, Prague DG Bank Building, Berlin and the Experience Music Project, Seattle, Washington. Gehry's dramatic and individual style, often referred to as Post-Modern and deconstructed, evolved from domestic and commercial buildings to large institutional structures, functioning between architecture and sculpture. In 1979 this practice was succeeded by the firm Gehry & Krueger Inc., and by Gehry Partners, LLP, in 2002. He opened his first practice in Santa Monica, California in 1962. He worked in architectural firms including Victor Gruen Associates and Pereira and Luckman Associates in California and also for a year in the office of Andre Remondet in Paris.
In 1954, he received his undergraduate degree in architecture from the University of Southern California, and later attended the Harvard Graduate School of Design, where he studied city planning. Frank Gehry was born Frank Goldberg in Toronto, Canada in 1929.
