 MUSEUM OF OSTEOLOGY UPDATE
|

Construction has begun on the second phase of the museum including an internal mezzanine balcony, second level classroom, elevator and architecture to suspend an articulated humpback whale skeleton. With luck, this second phase should be complete by summer 2006. The third and final phase, including display construction and exhibit design, will immediately follow. The photo on the right is one of the temporary storage areas for some of the museum's marine mammal collection. This assortment only represents 1/4th of the museum's marine mammal holdings.
