The New Dali Museum

Construction for the new Dali Museum is scheduled to be completed around seven months from now. The museum's homepage has a countdown clock, and has a page of links devoted to the new building, including a web cam of the construction site, a Flickr page, FAQs, and more.

Although the construction site is fenced in, you can still get a good look at the new construction at its soon-to-be home, next to the Mahaffey Theater in St. Pete.
