ASHWAUBENON, Wis. — The National Railroad Museum’s site plan for a 32,040-square-foot addition to its Lenfestey Center received unanimous approval at a Jan. 3 meeting of the Ashwaubenon Site Plan Review Committee, the Green Bay Press Times reports.
Approval allows the museum to move forward with the expansion plan as long as it meets conditions and requirements for code compliance.
The $15 million plan would more than double the size of the Lenfestey Center, the 25,000-square-foot structure that is the museum’s main rolling-stock exhibition venue. The museum has been discussing the project since 2016 and says completion is “years down the line” [see “National Railroad Museum submits …,” Trains News Wire, Jan. 3, 2023].
