Nice event space, and a nice museum in general! Extra enjoyable if you grew up in the area, because there are extra exhibits on a lot of local shows.

There's some signs with outdated information. I also would have liked to see the museum talk about the difference in perception between radio and TV during the JFK/Nixon debate display.

Wait a while before you go, not a whole lot to see and not worth the $12, maybe when it's a bit more finished

This is not worth going to at all. Has no focus and has a bunch of mistakes. Marconi did not win the Novel prize in physics. That is just one that jumped out at me.
