New York City Police Museum"The New York City Police Museum, a not-for-profit New York State Department of Education Chartered Museum is now open to the public. Located in the heart of the Financial District near other museums such as the Museum of the American Indian, the Museum of American Financial History, the Museum of Jewish Heritage, Living Memorial to the Holocaust, and Ellis Island and Statue of Liberty ferries. Please call in advance to arrange group tours."
At the Museum by Jason Wiggins
Most of the material on display is memorabilia showing that development of police work over time; uniforms, badges, medals, motorcycles and a squad car. The museum also gives information about the structure and function of the contemporary police force; what the Transit and Housing and numerous other divisions are and what they do. The museum also has an interesting exhibit about modern forensic science. A visit to the Police Museum should only take half an hour to an hour and is interesting mainly as a curiosity stop if you’re in the area. Last Modified January 2001 |
