First in line for the Nelson is a new parking garage, to be followed by a sizeable expansion to the gallery. The parking garage is expected to be finished next year and the addition by 2005.
Even the plans for the parking garage are impressive. A reflecting pool will be built over the garage, to be located outside the current and new doors at the north end of the museum. There will be 27 glass lenses placed in the bottom of the pool and light filtered through the pool will be cast into the parking garage.
The main entrance to the museum will be located at the addition's north end. The new wing will consist of 140,000 sf and have glass lenses there as well, which will rise above ground to provide light and connection to the existing sculpture gardens.
