The Current Status Of Museum Construction
In real time, the Universal Hip Hop Museum is still being developed in Bronx Point, New York. It’s set to be officially open for the public in 2024 & is receiving tons of support from New York City. The museum’s executive director Rocky Bucano shared this with CBS News, “We’re building a unique kind of museum experience. We’re not building the old traditional museum where you’re going to see a bunch of stuff on the wall and you know, looks like old dinosaurs.” Construction of the Universal Hip Hop Museum began around February last year.
