The Intrepid’s New Enterprise Space Shuttle Museum
The Intrepid Museum have recently revealed a plan for its giant Space Shuttle museum. If approved, the Space Shuttle Enterprise Museum will be an educational and public programming center in New York, literally built around the giant space shuttle.
The Intrepid Museum acquired the Enterprise this past April, and it is one of only 4 space shuttles donated by NASA to museums in the country. Susan Marenoff-Zausner, President of the museum, decided to feature the shuttle while improving the surrounding neighborhood by giving it its own space in Hell’s Kitchen.
Plans reveal a spiraling glass and steel structure built to surround the intact shuttle. Plenty of open spaces allow for visibility, natural light, and ventilation. The non-profit museum will not only bring in 300,000 more visitors, generating nearly $150 million in revenue, but will also create over 1,000 new jobs.

This building looks weird. Also, I think it would be cooler if they’re going to have it at that angle to have the top...
