Construction on the museum building began on July 4, 1890 when the cornerstone was laid and was finished in June 1891. The museum was opened in December 1891 and was expanded in 1895 to hold Franklin Fairbanks's full collection. In part, the museum's tradition of reporting the weather and atmospheric conditions comes from Fairbanks's own practice of doing it. -from Wikipedia
