We cannot wait to visit Washington DC to see the Whitehouse, of course, and wave hello to President Obama, and also to visit the National Building Museum. Currently there is an exhibit about icebergs at the museum! Well, really the exhibit is the effect of global warming on the built environment. It looks like great fun to walk around the constructed icebergs and learn at the same time.
The National Building Museum also has a lot of other valuable programs and information for learning about the designed environment.
The Building Brain Busters are a series of questions and answers that will test your building expertise. Try it out here.
