The expansive podium cantilevers above ground and includes 17,000 square metres of exhibition space across thirty-three galleries, three cinemas, a mediatheque, a learning hub, and a roof garden that faces Victoria Harbour. The tower houses the museum’s research centre, offices, restaurants, and a members’ lounge on the eleventh floor.
