Museum of Science & History

This iconic 166,000 sq. ft. museum has many exhibit spaces, classrooms and dining areas. Three unique structures are incorporated into the design.

The domed Noble Planetarium is a landmark, as is the Energy Gallery roof, composed of a huge cantilever over a ribbon window that “appears” to be supported by glass. Above the main entrance is an 80 ft. tower referred to as the Urban Lantern. On top of the tower is a glowing glass box that can be seen for miles around. The facility is a source of pride for the city, museum staff the designers.
