City Reliquary

Walk through an antique subway turnstile into this tiny museum dedicated to Big Apple ephemera. The three-room collection contains an oddball mix of memorabilia like Lady Liberty figurines, chunks from landmark buildings and a shrine honoring Brooklyn Dodgers star Jackie Robinson. Check the website’s event calendar to catch occasional readings, burlesque shows and lectures in the art-filled backyard.
