About Museum of the City of New York
The Museum of the City of New York’s beautifully renovated landmark building on Fifth Avenue’s iconic Museum Mile is the perfect place for special events–weddings, bar/bat mitzvahs, corporate dinners, birthday, graduation, and holiday parties, and more. Upon entering the Museum from Fifth Avenue, guests step into the beautiful Rotunda—the highlight of this grand Georgian-style mansion. The museum’s stunning contemporary light installation, Starlight, accentuates a sweeping marble staircase leading up to the second floor where a reception hall, complete with French doors, overlooks Central Park. The front courtyard and back terrace are delightful in the summer months and can be tented in any season. + Private viewings of special exhibitions enhance all occasions.
