RECOMMENDED: 50 best New York attractions

Located on the grounds of two World’s Fairs, the QMA holds one of Gotham’s most amazing sights: The Panorama of the City of New York, a 9,335-square-foot scale model of the five boroughs, created for the 1964 exposition and featuring Lilliputian models of landmarks. The museum itself is currently undergoing an expansion to double the size of its galleries by fall 2013, as well as add public-event spaces, two new entryways and a glass facade facing Grand Central Parkway.
