Synopsis

Although dominated by famous institutions such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, and the Guggenheim, it is not surprising that New York City offers more than one hundred additional museums that feature an enormous range of interests and themes. In New York City you can visit the largest collection of toy boats in the world, the home of Louis Armstrong, the first capitol building of the United States, enter a late 19th-century tenement house, see Lincoln's manuscript of the Emancipation Proclamation, stand on the deck of a World War II aircraft carrier, and wonder at Latin American art and artefacts from pre-Colombian times to today.
