IrmaZandl ZandlSlantOctober 28, 2015Love Nat Geo but this bldg is not as exceptional as I had hoped altho the boardroom is pretty splendid.
Seth KaplanNovember 13, 2011Check out the "Grossology" interactive exhibit for kids. Lots of burp and fart activities. Just like home.
DmedusaDMarch 20, 2010Innovative music events hosted throughout the year. Best of US and international performers.
Melanie PhungApril 20, 2010If you're in the neighborhood with a few minutes to spare, visit the lobby for whatever the current photo display is. Nat Geo always has great photography.
MJ CourchesneFebruary 20, 2011Great new exhibit called "America I Am," with objects from African-American history & pop culture open now thru May 1. Check it out!
Outdoor exhibit: Rare: Photographs by Joel Sartore includes images of endangered species of North America. FREE
Michele M.May 15, 2017Bad bad bad! Poor exhibits good only for elementary school kids. Expensive items at the store ... and all this for 15$ entry ticket. Stay miles away.
Nice place to hang out while you're waiting to meet someone.- LIVE Gecko Exhibit until January 5th. $7 admission, FREE on Wednesdays
Stay away from the bat cave. It smells and there's no light to be found. Ignore the 'free' pizza.
