Location / Directions |
The Perot Museum of Nature and Science is located in Victory Park, near Downtown Dallas. The museum consists of two campuses: the primary campus located in Victory Park, and a secondary campus in Fair Park. |
Description | From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: By integrating architecture, nature and technology, the building demonstrates scientific principles and is used as a teaching tool that provides “living” examples of engineering, sustainability and technology at work. Building on the Museum’s commitment to resource conservation, the new building integrates a variety of sustainable strategies including a rainwater collection system that will capture run-off water from the roof and parking lot, satisfying 74 percent of the Museum’s non-potable water needs and 100 percent of its irrigation needs.
