Construction Updates

Our South Entrance, which faces Exposition Park, is temporarily closed due to construction of our new wing, NHM Commons, opening November 2024. 

  • For those parking in NHM Car Park: Proceed to the green ticket booth at the east end of the parking lot. This entrance remains open.
  • For those parking in the Blue Lot or other areas around Exposition Park: Enter through our East Gate entrance, which is located across from the west end of the Rose Garden. ADA and stroller accessibility are available at this entrance.
