The Morgan Library & Museum
For the history of the written word, nowhere in the city beats this. Morgan's McKim library holds three Gutenberg Bibles, original literary and music manuscripts, and the most beautiful study in Manhattan. It's the Gilded Age's idea of what a great private collection should be — and now it's public.
