Tate Modern was offically opened by the Queen on 11th May 2000 and
to the public on 12th May.
In the 1990s speculation about the project suggested...
"It is expected
that the new gallery, due for completion by the Millennium, will cover
five floors to include not only an extensive exhibit space, but also
educational areas, a cafe and retail shops as part of a covered street
which will run right through the very heart of the gallery itself."
