Tennessee’s oldest museum is in need of a larger, more modernized space to house its impressive collection and GTG has been chosen as the General Contractor to build Brooks Museum’s new vision for the future. Designed by Herzog & de Meuron and archimania, the Brooks’ new home – renamed Memphis Art Museum – is sure to be a world-class museum and transformational to Downtown Memphis! Above the gallery and education spaces, is a floor-to-ceiling, glass-walled theatre offering views of the city skyline and providing a beautiful backdrop for concerts, meetings or other large-scale events. The new, Downtown location will act as the community’s “den,” offering free access to a courtyard, a stunning terrace view of the Mississippi River and more opportunities for families to explore, learn and interact with the museum.
