New York Public Library
May. 1st, 2026 09:05 pmLast week in New York, Wednesday morning we visited the library. You know, that library. I’m sure most people who aren’t from the city refer to this building as the New York Public Library, but of course it’s a big city with a lot of branches, and this is just the most famous one. And it is very famous. The Stephen A. Schwarzman Building. You know the lions. This is Patience…
(I didn’t pay my respects to Fortitude this visit.)
And this is the Rose Main Reading Room…
When you see it in the movies, it would seem to be right inside the front door. But it’s actually up on the third floor. Notice how high the ceiling is. Also note, if you want to see it, it’s only open to the public for an hour, at 10am.
