“To my mind, the quintessential New York Public Library. I feel like Francie Nolan would’ve hung out here.”

“Originally a courthouse (with a jail!) from late 1800s. While it looks like a gothic church, you’ll notice the details are non religious. Beautiful spaces for study inside. Particular soft spot as my child spends hours here each week.”
