The Domes - Milwaukee WI by Meridith112

The Domes - Milwaukee WI

Mitchell Park Horticultural Conservatory (Mitchell Park Domes or The Domes) is a conservatory located at Mitchell Park in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, U.S.. It is owned and operated by the Milwaukee County Park System, and replaced the original Milwaukee Conservatory which stood from 1898 to 1955. The three domes display a large variety of plant life.
Designed by Donald L. Grieb the Conservatory is composed of three beehive-shaped glass domes that span 140 feet in diameter and are 85 feet high. They are properly referred to as the world's first and only conoidal domes. They cover 45,000 square feet of display area and were constructed in stages from 1959 to 1967.
The Domes were officially dedicated in 1965 by first lady Mrs. Claudia Alta “Lady Bird” Johnson.
Connecting the three domes is a central lobby area. On February 8, 2016, it was announced the Mitchell Park Domes would be closed until further notice due to structural concerns, with a short-term fix expected to take three to six months.
Only the Show Dome was open while we were there. Nice inside but I think the other two would be more interesting to me.
