Placeholder

The Patricia and Phillip Frost Museum of Science topped off its Living Core Aquarium recently. The aquarium will house South Florida’s iconic terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems: the Everglades, Mangroves, the Florida Reef and the 500,000 gallon, three-story Gulf Stream Aquarium. The museum also reports that it's raised $103M toward its construction through donations, in addition to the $165M granted by the Miami-Dade County’s Building Better Communities Bond Program in 2004, putting funding near the $300M necessary. The museum will be finished next summer.
