About

The Museum of the City of New York’s iconic Georgian Colonial-Revival building is located directly across from Central Park’s Conservatory Garden; the Museum fosters an understanding of the distinctive nature of urban life in the world’s most influential metropolis. It engages visitors by celebrating, documenting, and interpreting the city’s past, present, and future. With newly restored and renovated features, the original 1929 historic design is complemented by sleek, state-of-the-art equipment and a climate controlled environment, making the Museum an ideal fit for any event, including weddings, bar/bat mitzvahs, corporate events, fundraisers, holiday parties, fashion shows, film shoots, and more. The award-winning space has been the location for a number of TV and film shoots, including Gossip Girl, 30 Rock, Madam Secretary, Younger, among others. It has been featured in numerous publications, including The Knot, New York Magazine, Carat and Cake, and Style Me Pretty.
