NFT: NYC Fire Museum - worth a visit?

Greg from LI : 8/25/2016 3:45 pm
We'll be up on LI visiting family next week and plan on spending at least one day in the city. Thought this one might be fun for the kids, but it's a bit out of the way from everything else we're thinking of doing. Worth the trip downtown? Thanks.
It's ok

But the Aviation Museum is actually really good. My 3 year old enjoys it just as much as the wildly overpriced and overcrowded Childrens Museum.
Ooops

Misread the original post... I thought you meant the firefighters museum in Uniondale.

was always a favorite when I was a kid. Not sure if it's still around. Letterman did a piece on it back in the 80's, check out the link starts at the 2:50 mark.

that misspelling reminds me of an old Brian Regan bit:

it's, I before E EXCEPT after C, AND when sounding like A as in neighbor and weigh, and on weekends and holidays and all throughout May, and you'll always be wrong NO MATTER WHAT YOU SAY!"
The Museum of Natural History is great

But we did it on our last visit. Was looking for something new this time. I'm also considering the Intrepid, but that has a lot of overlap with the Museum of Naval Aviation in Pensacola, which we've been to many times.
