A Toronto based group plans to lease the bottom seven floors of a brand new office building in Times Square. They want to build a public aquarium, as well as a museum about pirates. The lease would be for 25 years, and the aquarium could open as soon as 2011. There has not been a public aquarium in Manhattan since 1941.
I wonder if it will be as good as the Churaumi Aquarium (Okinawa, Japan), shown in the photo. That’s a whale shark, if you’re wondering.
