南极车站建于阶段,因此第一组乘员能够在2003年1月居住,并于2008年1月正式开幕。全夏季运营始于2011年10月。这是6039平方米的仪表。车站延伸了128m,面对盛行的风,采用航空设计,有助于从其下方进行扫雪。该综合大楼在夏季容纳150人,冬季可容纳50人。

两个单独的蓝灰色,马蹄形模块通过灵活的人行道连接,可以在高跷上抬起,以防止破坏性的积雪。主入口有时被称为“目的地Alpha”,面向滑雪道。车站背面的另一个楼梯入口是“目的地祖鲁”。

一个模块设有居住区,一个饭厅,酒吧,医院,洗衣房,商店,邮局和温室(增加了新设施的未来派,空间的感觉,温室被正式称为‘food-growth chamber’). In the other module are offices, labs, computers, telecommunications, an emergency-power plant, conference rooms, music practice rooms and a gym. Cozy reading rooms and libraries are scattered throughout both units.

该电台的三窗格窗户,在“冰箱”门外不锈钢窗口,并有加压内部装饰,以防止选秀。一方面,一个四层楼的铝制塔,熟悉的“啤酒罐”,里面装有楼梯间,货物升降机和公用事业。光伏面板利用了夏天的24小时阳光。在2009-10赛季增加了一个风力涡轮机,但是极地高原的浅风意味着该车站需要一个更大的风车农场来满足其需求。

Before this station existed, from 1975 to 2008, home at the Pole was known familiarly as ‘the Dome,’ or, affectionately, ‘Dome, Sweet Dome.’ Built from 1971 to 1975, the former base was a silver-gray aluminum geodesic dome, 50m in diameter at its base and 15m high. It covered three structures, each two stories high, which provided accommodations, dining, laboratory and recreational facilities. Although the Dome protected these buildings and their occupants from the wind, it did nothing about the cold – it was unheated. It had a packed-snow floor and an opening at the top to let out water vapor. Over time, as the base became submerged in snow and ice, parts of the complex became unsafe. Occasional power brownouts and fuel leaks threatened station security, and the drifting snow began to crush the Dome. Because of all these problems, the US government built the current above-snow facility.

旧的圆顶综合大楼被拆除了几年,最后一块在2010年删除,并运送到加利福尼亚州的韦尼姆港,最高部分位于新的Seabee博物馆中。

1997年,该杆上目前的1.74亿美元车站工作,需要80名建筑工人(其中25%的女性)每周工作九小时。在24小时的夏日灯中,三名工作人员全天候工作。工人描述了 - 在这里的异常建筑危险中,金属像热炉一样裸露的手。与此同时,该电台的正常冬季人口几乎翻了一番,额外的工作人员致力于建设。麦克默多(McMurdo)的数百架航班带来了必要的建筑材料,这反过来又计划,采购和运送了多年的麦克穆尔多(McMurdo)。
