What to see in the metropolis?
BLDG 92
A small museum on the site of the former military residence at the Naval Yard in Brooklyn is dedicated to the history of the former shipbuilding center, which during the Second World War employed about 70 thousand people. Visitors will be able to see the ships built in the yard, and at the same time learn interesting facts about its employees.
Panorama of New York
Studying all the buildings and streets in the city can take a lifetime. Fortunately, the "skyscape of New York" — a place that is a reduced copy of a metropolis with an area of 867 square meters. With it, visitors can explore all of New York without stepping out onto its streets.
Bartow-Pell Mansion Museum
This wonderful estate dates back to the 17th century, when Thomas Pell bought from the Indians the territory that is today the Bronx. The estate was built between 1836 and 1842, sold to New York in 1888. Since 1946, a museum has been operating on the estate, which presents antique furniture. Visitors can enjoy the history of this place and walk through the chic gardens around the mansion.
Met Breuer
The new branch of the Metropolitan Museum of Art has been operating since March 2016. It presents exhibitions on the art of the 20th and 21st centuries. Among them are works by Leonardo da Vinci, Andy Warhol, as well as paintings by Indian modernist Nasrin Mohamedi.
Snug Harbor Cultural Center
Staten Island is home to a former home for retired sailors. It attracts visitors with a large botanical garden and cultural center surrounded by cobbled streets and narrow paths of Tudor and Victorian houses. The Chinese Garden is one of the main attractions of Snug Harbor.
City Museum of Relics
Guests who drop in here will see old postcards depicting the Statue of Liberty, an old subway turnstile and other historical exhibits. In addition, the museum hosts various social events that you can visit.
Green-Wood Cemetery
Even some 100 years ago, it competed with Niagara Falls for the title of the main tourist attraction in New York State. Blame the Victorian mausoleums, gargoyles, cherubs and other architectural structures on its territory.
The Woolworth Building
One of the 20 tallest buildings in New York is over 100 years old. Its construction was completed in 1913 and at that time no other building in the world could compete with it in height. Currently, in the lobby of the hotel you can admire its beautiful marble and glass interiors.
Socrates Sculpture Park
This 1.8 hectare urban park was created by activists and artists in 1986. It hosts major sculpture exhibitions and various art events throughout the year.
