WEST END, Ohio (WKRC) - Some one-of-a-kind dinosaurs now have a home.

The Cincinnati Museum Center reopens to the public Saturday. That's after a more than two-year, $228-million restoration project.

Among the changes is a new Dinosaur Hall at the Museum of Natural History and Science. It's the only place in the world visitors will be able to see the largely intact skeleton of Torvosaurus -- a 35-foot, four-ton predator.

You'll also be able to watch paleontologists at work in a new lab and see an interactive globe that shows the continents moving over 600 million years.

Holiday Junction and a refurbished public landing exhibit are among the other attractions you can see starting Saturday.
