Case Study

Leggat McCall is project manager for the $45 million expansion and renovation project of the Boston Children’s Museum that will transform both the museum and its waterfront site on the Fort Point Channel.

The renovation began in the spring of 2006 and is scheduled to be completed in 2007. The project will include a 23,000 square-foot three-story addition, as well as a new theater, and major new exhibitions in arts, culture, science and math, and health and fitness in over 50,000 square feet of renovated space in the Museum’s historic warehouse. The project is designed by Cambridge Seven Associates and Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates, and the building and site incorporate sustainable design elements, including the use of green materials and a green roof.
