A new master plan for the Museum of Natural History converted a sea of asphalt and concrete on the North side of the campus into a dynamic education garden and greenscape. The project consolidated what was a large parking area into a two-story garage, reclaiming leftover space to create gardens and bring nature into the heart of the city. MATT crushed the demolished concrete and asphalt from the original lots and reused all of the material as base in other areas of the site.
