The Best Museums in New York City, From the Met to the New York Transit Museum | Condé Nast Traveler

"What is it, exactly? A museum and library, a historic site and music venue, and a piece of art in its own right. Once J.P. Morgan’s over-the-top personal library and now open to the public, it holds treasures like one of 23 original copies of the Declaration of Independence, Mozart’s handwritten Haffner Symphony score, poet Phillis Wheatley’s collected works, the sole extant manuscript of Milton’s Paradise Lost, and Dickens’s manuscript for A Christmas Carol." - Charlie Hobbs, Andrea Whittle
