Mathematics. It’s a subject that can elicit groans and exclamations of “boring.”

But Glen Whitney, a former hedge-fund quantitative analyst, is betting he can change that.

Whitney is planning to open the only museum in the United States dedicated to mathematics.

MoMath, which will center on the wonders of mathematics and its connections with art, science and finance, is scheduled to open in Manhattan next year.

The $30 million museum will occupy the ground floor and lower level of a 20-story building on East 26th Street in Chelsea.
