Fabulous conservation tour on Thursdays at 10AM. Well worth the time and $10. Excellent history, design, architecture insights.
TingFebruary 16, 2016Fantastic eg. of a sensitive touch in preserving historical decoration yet modernizing usage. Kudos to the vision of Herzog & de Meuron. Get a peep to all the spaces via the weekly 75mins tours @$10.
Upvoted Sep 25- Filippa Edberg-ManuelJanuary 27, 2016The Park Avenue Armory hosts the Winter Antiques Show - the show is like walking inside a private museum with fantastic curators happy to share the many fascinating histories of each of their objects.

TomfooleryDecember 8, 2014Saw the NYPhil's: PHILHARMONIC 360 here in 2012 and it will be an experience I'll never forget. Incredible use of architecture within the music..- Tiam SchaperJanuary 12, 2015I love this place. All of their stuff is good. Particularly liked their latest exhibition.
- Winter antiques show. Fabulous pieces and great to experience every eccentric, monied NYer.
I CARE IF YOU LISTENDecember 8, 2011A unique venue in New York. Fairs, and art installations are neat, but hearing Stravinsky's Symphony of Psalms or John Luther Adams’ Inuksuit in such a huge space is quite an experience...
Qian SunJuly 30, 2017Came here for the Hansel&Gretel show this time. But the building itself has a lot to show✨ very beautiful💕
Kristy PhilpOctober 10, 2015A really beautiful interior space. Saw tree of codes here, one of the best performances seen this year.

Jen GrunwaldApril 13, 2018This place is absolutely gorgeous. I saw Yerma here and plan to come back as much as possible!
Richard BJanuary 12, 2011A gorgeous old building! Many of the ground floor rooms are open to the public even if you aren't seeing an exhibit. Stop in and check out the space and catch an show.
