As we prepare to construct the new Biodome expansion, let’s take a moment to reflect on the GSC's history! This artist’s rendering from the 1990s highlights the museum’s growth up to that point. On the far left is the original Greensboro Junior Museum building, with the planetarium expansion (added in the mid-1970s) located behind it. In the late 1980s, the GSC began its next major expansion, which included the lower level, pendulum, and lobby seen in this rendering. The entrance was enhanced, the Great Hall was introduced for traveling exhibits, and the GSC entered a new era. As we work on our exciting new addition, stay tuned for more GSC Rewinds to learn about our journey! GreensboroScienceCenter #VisitGSO #GSCRewind
