Cape Fear Museum Gets Major Upgrade | Wilmington News

The Cape Fear Museum is making a major splash with its brand-new downtown location on Grace Street, opening August 18th — double the exhibit space, triple the education area, and packed with cool stuff like a planetarium, kid-friendly treehouse climber, and even Michael Jordan memorabilia. Part of the ambitious Project Grace, this $77M public redevelopment (including a new library) puts science and history front and center, thanks to expert input from UNC Wilmington and GE. The old building? Still standing, now used for research. And behind the scenes, private development could soon bring more homes and shops to the block.
