A MUSEUM BY ANY OTHER NAME

In Britain, fears that the country may be “over-museumed” after a rash of building. So some of the latest museum editions aren’t calling themselves “museums” at all. Bristol’s newest $180 million baby doesn’t have the word in its name. Instead, the 11-acre site has the unwieldy name of “@ Bristol” and the emphasis is all on the toys of new technology, IMAX movies and video. – The Telegraph (UK) 03/10/00
