ONLY IN NEW YORKThe museum of everything that could not have happened anywhere else. 17 rooms of the most iconic, hilarious and ridiculous things the city ever did, each one real, each one rebuilt so you can stand in it, with one trick you can only get by being there. Everybody here has an eye flower for a head.

A turnstile that says please swipe again until it does not. A subway car where it is showtime. A platform where nobody has pants on and one man does. Grand Central frozen for five minutes in 2008. Pizza Rat on the First Avenue stairs, dinner handled. The cronut line on Spring Street. A 300 square foot studio with the bathtub in the kitchen and a rent meter that will not stop. The sixteen ounce soda that grows you. The bull, the girl and the pug at Bowling Green. The lookalike contest where everyone looks exactly the same. The Hot Duck and his press corps. A sixteen foot pigeon on the High Line. SantaCon. The Times Square characters, and a billboard that films you. The Rat Czar and the trash bin that got a press conference. The historic blizzard that was not. Seventy six hot dogs at Coney Island. Census New Yorkers by MLow hang on every wall, from the block it happened on.

SKATE MODE: every room is a skate spot, with three goals in each of the 12 rooms, 51 goals in all. Ride as the pantsless commuter, the showtime captain, a Santa, the cowboy, Pizza Rat or the Hot Duck. K or the SKATE button switches any time.
