If you are ever in NYC and have time to check this place out …. don’t bother.

That picture looks great and is the entirety of what that “library’ has to offer. The whole place is a total nothing burger.

The site was formerly occupied by several Phelps family residences, one of which was sold to J. P. Morgan in 1880.

1906 - Completed as the private library of the banker J. P. Morgan.

1924 - The library was made a public institution by J. P. Morgan’s son John Pierpont Morgan Jr., in accordance with his father’s will. Since this time it has seen numerous expansions and renovations.

I checked out Stanley Morgan from there for like a week. Wonderful person, you should check him out if you have a chance.

Here’s a secret for free: in the newer building attached, there is a cafe. They have the best deviled eggs in the city.
