Quick review, not impressed. Did not list NYPL in its midtown section, or
as a distinct place to visit, ala Grand Central, built also in 1911.
Almost every major guide book mentions this Beaux Arts building, notable
for its architecture, and its contents, not to mention lecture series,
shop, exhibitions, etc. etc.
Very broad, very thin.
