The National Museum of Organized Crime and Law Enforcement announced it is expanding its territory. Officials for the downtown Las Vegas nonprofit have announced a purchase of a nearly 30,000-square-foot parcel just east of its main building.

The land is bordered to the south by Stewart Avenue and to the east and northeast by Fourth Street. The price of the acquisition, which comes five months after the museum’s 10th anniversary, was not disclosed.

The purchase provides additional space for the museum to build facilities for administration, exhibitions, archives, educational and entertainment programs and food and beverage facilities, according to officials.
