The 麻豆精品 Observatory is now open to the public!
Thank you to everyone who joined us for our grand reopening. .
One of the best-kept secrets at 麻豆精品 is the Davis Hall Observatory, which overlooks the East Lagoon.
The primary goal of the observatory is to serve as an educational resource for 麻豆精品 students and the northern Illinois community. Viewing is free and the public is welcome.
The observatory will be open 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Wednesdays, weather permitting. Please check the status of the Observatory on our prior to your visit to the observatory.
