Summary edit

Description

Looking across the lobby into the Wildlife Hall at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History, located in Cleveland, Ohio, in the United States.

The CMNH was founded in 1920. It moved into a new 16,000 square foot building on Wade Oval in 1958. The museum expanded in 1956; added a new wing in 1972, 1977, and 1988; completed the Shafran Planetarium in 2002; and the renovated 7,500 square foot Kahn Hall (where traveling exhibits are shown) in 2012. The museum's architectural style is mid-century bland. It has more than 30 mechanical rooms controlling its indoor climate, almost all of which need replacement. (Only Kahn Hall has the climate and lighting control that meets accepted standards.)

CMNH is considered among the top 10 natural history museums in the United States. It has 300,000 visitors a year, more than 5 million artifacts and specimens, and a budget of $15 million. The museum has a $150 million endowment, which provides it with about $6 million a year in operating income.
