Museum of the City of New York Reviews

Part of the museum is under reconstruction but what we saw was great especially the exhibit on Joel Grey. Would love to return once the contruction is completed.

This was a fun and informative day. Very cool.

took my granddaughter. I attended this museum when I was a child.
unfortunately the museum has dismantled their doll house room which was my favorite

The Joel Gray feature exhibit was fascinating. Loved the 15 movie too. The new furniture exhibit is exceptional!

The building is beautiful and it's a nice location (5th Ave.) However, half the museum was closed so it only takes about an hour to see everything, including an interesting slide show.

I went to see this Museam on one of my trips to NYC. Loved the layout of the Museam, but was a little dissapointed that there was not a more extensive history of New York in the original documentary narrated by Stanley Tucci. All the same, well...continued

A lot of fun stuff to learn.

the 25 minute film on the history of NYC was absolutely wonderful as was the exhibit on the green food of NYC.

great!!!

The museum is small, but the exhibits were great. You should make a point to see the movie about how New York City came to be. I especially liked the Joel Grey photography exhibit & it has inspired me to walk around with my camera on a daily...continued

IT WAS VERY INFORMATIVE AND WELL THOUGHT OUT. WITH A GREAT OVERVIEW OF THE HISTORY OF NEW YORK.

For the size and history of NY, I was disappointed at how little history of NYC was exhibited at the museum. My grandfather lived in NYC from 1917 to 1976 and I was hoping to find out what the city was like back then but there was not much at the...continued

Interesting place, beautiful building, helpful staff. We had a great time!

The Roche and 9/11 exhibits were great and the 22 minute video on the history of NYC was very informative. I also enjoyed the displays of interior period furniture. A very delightful place to visit.

I did not go. I forgot about it. GoldStar did not remind me.
