The balcony area is a great place to sit during events here.
Fun interactive children's museum with lots of great spaces for kids to explore. Dora floor, fire engine, sand tables, painting on the white board and splash in the summer are our highlights.

On 11/9/11, I spoke at the grand re-opening of the New-York Historical Society Museum and Library following its three-year renovation.
Expansive collection of books on all types of performing arts. Great orchestra collection and they even have exhibits that are always changing!
Great place to do some laptop work with free wifi. There are large clean open tables, adjustable Aeron office chairs, and plenty of plugs. It's best on the 2nd floor. No mandatory coat/bag check.
