Due to the continuous occupation of Building 29A for almost 50 years, and the changing needs and technologies of research scientists, the interior of the building has been modified on numerous occasions; many of those dates are likely unknown for minor changes. There are copies of some renovation drawings in the NIH plan office which include modifications to Rooms 2D02–8 and 3A01–05, and installation of a mezzanine for freezers in Room B15 and installation of Rooms B15A, B15B, and B10A in 1991; installing electrical service in Room B27, and a new loading dock in 1992; renovations to Rooms 2D04–10 in 2001; renovations to labs on the third floor Corridor A, the BL3 Labs, Room 3A11, and Room 1B08 in 2002; renovations to Room 3A03 in 2006; a new vault in 2010; and a new fire alarm system in 2011. There are still some interior spaces, however, that reflect their historic laboratory, administrative, and/or other relevant uses.
