CHICAGO (WLS) -- Sue the T. Rex has a new home! The Field Museum unveiled the new 5,100-square-foot facility on the second floor on Tuesday.

Sue was dismantled in February and moved there bone by bone from Stanley Hall over the last year. "Maximo" the titanosaur took over the spot where Sue stood for the last 18 years.

In addition to Sue, the new dinosaur exhibit features cutting-edge animations of Sue and her friends.

You can see Sue in her new home starting Friday.
