Phillip & Patricia Frost Museum of Science

This guide to the Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science in Miami centers on the cone-shaped shark tank overhead, an upside-down martini glass built with no sharp corners so its residents could cruise without bruising themselves. It follows the 2014 construction problem that shape created: concrete trucks arriving one after another for over twenty-four straight hours, because any pause risked a weak seam in a tank meant to hold half a million gallons under pressure. Stand at the bottom and look straight up through the glass oculus at your feet.
