Boston MFA Begins $500 Million Expansion Project

Boston’s Museum of Fine Arts breaks ground on a $500 million expansion. “The building project, designed by British architecture firm Foster and Partners of London, will expand the size of the museum by 149,000 square feet, or roughly two-and-a-half football fields. New galleries, a central covered glass-and-steel courtyard with a cafe and a new wing dedicated to art of the Americas highlight the expansion project.”
