Children’s Museum Joins Boston’s Museum Boom

Boston’s Children’s Museum is about to begin construction of a $45 million expansion. “With the announcement, the Children’s Museum joins an unprecedented cultural building boom in Boston. Other projects include the Museum of Fine Arts, Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, Museum of Science, and a pair of museums slated for the Rose Kennedy Greenway. The closest in proximity to the Children’s Museum is the Institute of Contemporary Art, set to open on nearby Fan Pier in September.”
