Out of interest, a limited (and therefore maybe not so representative) sampling of relative sizes for some other art museums in other North American cities:
SF Museum of Modern Art - 225,000 sq ft
Seattle Art Museum - 150,000 sq ft
Milwaukee Art Museum (incl. Calatrava's Quadracci Pavilion) - 341,000 sq ft
Denver Art Museum - Hamilton Building (146,000 sq ft) + North Building (210,000 sq ft) or 356,000 sq ft total
Art Gallery of Ontario - 486,000 sq ft
So 320,000 sq ft for VAG isn't too shabby...
