    New York, NY
    Dewan’s 5-star review: Excellent. 1) It is pay as you wish/donation; which means: you can pay the full price of admission or 1 dollar, your choice. Also, the tickets works for all the other two Met Museums. 2) The Met bought the old Whitney Museum facility and now this is their 3rd facility in NYC. 3) They have multiple floors. I enjoyed the exhibitions during my visit.
  • Dewan’s 5-star review: Excellent museum. 1) Come here if you are around the area. Entrance is by donation. Which is nice. (3 dollar recommended). 2) This home was built by Dutch settlers in 1699. Later, it became the site of the Battle of Brooklyn. (Fun fact: Brooklyn was a loyalist county.) 3) Must visit if you are around the area.

    Brooklyn, NY
    Dewan’s 5-star review: Nice spot. 1) This is the oddest museum ever. Old and cracking, plus very small. 2) However, do not come for just the museum, I will recommend come here on a Sunday when they have magic show. You get to see the magic show and the museum as well. 3) Also, the Circus Sideshow is also in this building, which is 10/10.
