Wednesday marked the launch of OpenROM: a three-year-long project that will see the Royal Ontario Museum’s main floor and Bloor Street entrance reimagined.
Construction for the OpenROM project will begin this month, Basseches said, and is expected to take about three years to complete. During that time, the museum will remain open to the public. The project is made possible through a $50M donation from the Hennick Family Foundation, which is the single largest cash gift in theROM’s history..
In addition to transforming 86,000 sq. ft on the main floor, the project will bring an additional 6,000 sq. ft of new gallery space on the second and third levels of the museum, according to a press release provided by the ROM, as well as a new water feature at the exterior of the venue, which will wrap around the ROM's heritage stone facade at the corner of Bloor and Queen’s Park.
