Built in the style of the existing 1920’s Exhibition Hall and Orangerie glasshouses this new stainless steel and aluminum display hall replaced the 1960’s concrete domed structure in 2005. The numerous interconnected greenhouse structures that make up Longwood Gardens display gardens have been systematically rehabilitated to meet current overhead safety glazing standards and to lower the continual maintenance burden of older materials and construction.

The main Exhibition Hall and Orangerie were completely restored in 1996-1998.
