Ellen M. • December 30, 2011Kids! Super child-friendly, so must you be :)

Todd F. • March 10, 2010You can find out a neat fact about our history by looking at the interior doorknobs which are original to Brooklyn Historical Society's 1881 building.

Naked B. • January 28, 2012This 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.

Leeza • September 11, 2014Call ahead to just stop by. Tiny place, not a lot to see, but you get to hold an original musket if you want.

Precious M. • November 11, 2021The exhibition was fantastic. There is a wealth of material regarding the Revolutionary War period. The exhibits were real, and there were some beautiful images as well.

Al W. • February 27, 2015Sign up for their email list and get the heads up on their special events. Poetry, workshops, art.

Aya R. • January 16, 2010no matter who's artist is showing here, the building alone is worth the visit.

Bianca P. • July 14, 2013Be sure to visit the 4th floor cafe. The views alone are worth it. I'd imagine this is a phenomenal event space.

MuseumNerd • December 10, 2011Visit the free Revolutionary War history museum atop the hill. The museum and the largest free-standing doric column in the world are designed by the lecherous Stanford White.

Fred • May 30, 2014Volunteers work hard to maintain this National Historic Landmark!

Chris B. • August 10, 2010fascinating ship docked at the South Street Seaport.

Joel W. • December 31, 2021I had a deep look around this gallery and read the website since then. He's productive, eloquent, and opinionated. None of the work strikes me as particularly amazing, challenging.
