Skyscraper museum
The skyscraper museum, now located in a permanent gallery in Battery Park City, inhabited four temporary spaces from 1997 to 2003. The museum has an exhibit on the construction and history of the World Trade Center and on the different designs of the Freedom Tower. Almost every surface in this museum is mirrored, giving the space an expansive feel. In reality, it is quite small. The interior was designed by Roger Duffy of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill.
The 3rd picture is an old pier on the frozen Hudson river. This is the first time since I came to New York that I have seen this huge river freeze.
