The New York city model is unbelievable, worth the trip to queens. Build t in 1964 it was Renovated in1992, that's why you can see the twin towers and battery parkcity
A great museum. Besides being located in the middle of an awesome urban park it has a very eclecticexhibition schedule. As always check out the NYC panorama made by Columbia University students.
It's a small museum. The best part is definitely the diorama of New York City circa 1992. The Tiffany lamps are stunning, there's a few dozen examples here.
Designed by Robert Moses, “The Panorama of the City of New York” is compulsory viewing for anyone living in the city: a 9,335 square foot model of the city's 320 square miles and 895,000 buildings.
The museum was pretty underwhelming. There were only 3-4 random exhibits. We probably finished walking through everything in about 30min. Luckily the admission is suggested + the view outside is👌🏻
The Panorama of New York is worth seeing alone. However, the space is light and airy and the exhibits are interesting. Right out the back window is the globe left over from the 1964-65 World’s Fair.

This edifice is among the most storied landmarks that once housed the United Nations. It was constructed for the 1939 World’s Fair and hosted exhibits for both that event and the one in 1964. Read more
Make the trek just for the New York City Panorama – it’s absolutely worth it. Afterwards, take a stroll around the Unisphere and the World’s Fair Pavilion.
Ditto what others say: the Panorama is a must see. I love how artists regularly interact w/ the model of NYC to give it new meanings. And I appreciate QMA's commitment to immigrant, POC, LGBT artists.
The Panorama is a must-see. It’s a 3-D map of all of New York City. Fun fact: Queens Museum’s building was once housed the General Assembly of the United Nations.

I could have stared at the panorama for hours. It should be a NYC rite of passage to come here and try to find your apartment. I also found the Detroit photographyexhibit facinating.
The ArtAccess program is among the best artclasses I have attended. Very good techniques, and sometimes educational too. Would most certainly recommend to anyone in the area who may be interested.
