Lonely Planet review for New York City Police Museum

Get the brief on ‘New York’s Finest,’ with cool old police vehicles, as well as the mug shots and weapons of notorious New York criminals like Willie Sutton and Al Capone. There’s a collection of NYPD uniforms throughout the decades, insight into anti-terrorism tactics, and a 'Hall of Heroes' memorial to officers killed in the line of duty since 1845. The museum itself is housed in a neo-Renaissance palazzo on a landfilled inlet.
