Living Seas Construction Update

After just a few months, our former Hall of Fishes is almost unrecognizable after demolition wraps up! 🤯The construction crew has been hard at work, tearing down walls, removing tanks, pouring concrete and using some seriously cool equipment like excavators to make way for Living Seas!

Stay tuned for more updates as Living Seas continues to take shape!  This exciting new exhibition is set to open summer 2025.
