New York City Police Museum Reopens TODAY at 45 Wall Street

We are pleased to announce that the New York City Police Museum, whose original location was severely damaged during Hurricane Sandy, has reopened today (temporarily) in a storefront at 45 Wall Street! Come visit the fine folks at the Police Museum and check out their fascinating displays of historical NYPD artifacts. We just stopped in and we were greeted with warm smiles as we checked out the exhibits: uniforms, gear, weapons, photographs, medals, anecdotes, 9/11 artifacts and even a real NYPD Harley Davidson motorcycle! A great Museum in an absolutely stellar location, right on Wall Street.

Our Wall Street Walks walking tours begin on the next block so the Police Museum is a great place to visit before or after one of our tours. Admission is $5 per person, or FREE with the NY Pass. The Police Museum even has a sweet gift shop where you can get all your REAL, officially-licensed NYPD apparel like sweatshirts and hats.
