The La Brea Tar Pits hold the largest collection of Ice Age fossils in the world. Now, its grounds, museum, and research facilities are being reimagined.
The Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County has announced updated plans for a Studio-MLA and Frederick Fisher and Partners-led expansion that is now taking shape for the year 2024. New renderings of the 60,000-square-foot project appear to add interior details to the previous announcement.
The renovation and expansion project, called the NHM Commons, is set to debut in 2024. Both physically and conceptually, it's meant to better connect the museum to the community.
