CORAL WORLD'S HARVARD ALUMNI PROFILED

Apart from their involvement in Coral World, what do owner Neil Prior, curator Donna Nemeth, architect Torgen Johnson and landscape architects Rossana Vaccarino and Scott Natvig have in common? All are products of Harvard University, and the school's alumni magazine has jumped on that commonality in an article on Coral World's $8 million rebirth and their hand in it.
Harvard magazine's latest issue looks at how Prior and the others went about renovating the aquarium, devastated by Hurricane Marilyn in 1995. Coral World last year won the Environmental Protection Agency's Environmental Quality Award, and the architects went on to form Paradigm Design Inc., now involved in the redevelopment of the Charlotte Amalie waterfront.
