In a press conference held April 14, 2009, the Smithsonian Board of Regents announced that they would be moving forward with the Freelon Adjaye Bond/Smith Group design for the National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC). The winning design was selected among six other designs by varying architectural firms. According to the official NMAAHC website the construction of the museum is scheduled to begin in 2012 and will take up to three years to complete.
I for one am excited about the production of this new museum and can't wait for the grand opening! I will be following the production and development, so for more information stay tuned. You can also visit the official site, http://nmaahc.si.edu/. YAY!
