Abstract: We report preliminary results from millimeter and near-IR observations of the Red Rectangle carried out at the BIMA array and WIYN telescope, respectively. The 2.6 mm continuum data do not show the dust clump reported by Jura and Turner (Nature, 1999). The CO line emission maps indicate rotation of the circumbinary disk at a resolution of 0.5 km/s. The near-IR data reveal a source that is comparable in size to that seen in CO line emission. We plan to use this data to give us constraints for a radiative transfer model of the Red Rectangle.
