The Beaux-Arts building, designed by McKim, Mead & White, was originally planned to be the largest art museum in the world and now holds NYC's second-largest art collection.
It's a short subway ride from Manhattan and, even during major exhibitions, is typically far less crowded than the big Manhattan museums.
