The Skyscraper Museum

Description

The Skyscraper Museum is committed to the study of the past, present and future of high-rise building. Located in Battery Park City at the southern tip of Lower Manhattan, the museum celebrates the City’s rich architectural heritage and examines the historical forces and individuals that have shaped its successive skylines. Through exhibitions, publications, educational programs and its award-winning website, the museum explores tall buildings as objects of design, products of technology, sites of construction, investments in real estate and places of work and residence.
