波特兰艺术博物馆正在从正在合并办公室的缅因州卫生局获得4处市中心自由街房产。 The Portland Museum of Art is acquiring four downtown Free Street properties from MaineHealth, which is consolidating offices. 该博物馆将把行政人员搬到一栋大楼,腾出McClellan House供公众使用,并开一个附近的停车场,以改善出入,并可能提高5%至10%的出勤率。 The museum will move administrative staff to one building, freeing the McClellan House for public use and opening a nearby parking lot to improve access and potentially boost attendance by 5% to 10%. 扩大后支助了前儿童博物馆馆址的一座新的博物馆楼,这是大约三分之二完成的约1亿美元的筹资努力的一部分,尽管尚未确定时间表。 The expansion supports a new museum wing at the former Children’s Museum site, part of a $100 million fundraising effort about two-thirds complete, though no timeline has been set.
