Building Wing Construction Update... with PHOTOS!

Despite the chilly weather, we have been making great progress in the construction of the new Bradenbaugh-Hottenstein Collections Wing!

The concrete foundation will be poured very soon, which will allow the workers to work through the winter! We anticipate the new wing will be open in May 2011!

Stay tuned for additional updates and more photos as we make more progress!
