The Panorama of the City of New York April 6, 2010

'The Panorama of the City of New York' is the jewel in the crown of the collection of the Queens Museum of Art. Built by Robert Moses for the 1964 World's Fair, in part as a celebration of the City's municipal infrastructure, this 9,335 square foot architectural model includes every single building constructed before 1992 in all five boroughs... that is a total of 895,000 individual structures. It is the thing that everyone who has visited the Museum recalls.
