This place is incredible and a gem within nyc. The architecture alone is stunning, but be sure to check out their impressive calendar of events .

Fabulous conservation tour on Thursdays at 10AM. Well worth the time and $10. Excellent history, design, architecture insights.

Fantastic eg. of a sensitive touch in preserving historical decoration yet modernizing usage. Kudos to the vision of Herzog & de Meuron. Get a peep to all the spaces via the weekly 75mins tours @$10.

The Park Avenue Armory hosts the Winter Antiques Show - the show is like walking inside a private museum with fantastic curators happy to share the many fascinating histories of each of their objects.

Vanessa Rueda

When its not hosting some of NYC's best art installations , the beautiful interior of the Park Avenue Armory serves as the Commodore's mansion in HBO's Boardwalk Empire

Saw the NYPhil's: PHILHARMONIC 360 here in 2012 and it will be an experience I'll never forget. Incredible use of architecture within the music ..

I love this place. All of their stuff is good. Particularly liked their latest exhibition .

IrmaZandl ZandlSlant

Winter antiques show . Fabulous pieces and great to experience every eccentric , monied NYer.

I CARE IF YOU LISTEN

A unique venue in New York. Fairs , and art installations are neat, but hearing Stravinsky's Symphony of Psalms or John Luther Adams’ Inuksuit in such a huge space is quite an experience...

Came here for the Hansel&Gretel show this time. But the building itself has a lot to show✨ very beautiful????

A really beautiful interior space. Saw tree of codes here, one of the best performances seen this year.

Lovely airy gallery . The exhibits are well spaced out.

One of the most impressive collections of 1880s interior decoration outside of a museum ; only armory actually owned by the unit for which it was constructed

This place is absolutely gorgeous. I saw Yerma here and plan to come back as much as possible!
