    This is a really nice museum down in th Seaport. It's not the biggest, but for $5 it's worth every penny if you're down there. I'm happy that it has re-opened, the space by itself is worth it.

    Volunteering on the historic ships is possibly the coolest thing to do in New York City!

    Little museum that could. Exhibits and shop are open following Sandy. Worth the stairs to see the exhibits.

    We love this Museum! It is only a few block away from our Pier 11 location. If you're nearby, come say hello!

    A gem. Skip the mall, check out the ships, Bowne, and the liner exhibit. Once you're hooked, become a volunteer to spend Saturdays on the water!
