One of the factoids says there are 10 buildings marked, 6 outside of Staten Island. I found a few but I'm not confident about all of them. NY Transit Museum, United Nations, Javits Center, The Met, Brooklyn Botanic Garden (does a garden with buildings count?), Co-Op City (it's a bunch of buildings, does that count?), Bronx Zoo (again they have buildings but it's not one building). |

I was also trying to figure out what the ten buildings are.Here's my list: 1. NY Transit Museum 2. Staten Island Mall 3. Seaview Hospital 4. College of Staten Island 5. Snug Harbor Cultural Center 6. Metropolitan Museum of Art 7. Javits Center 8. United Nations I believe 9 & 10 are JFK and LGA respectively. While they consist of multiple buildings, they appear in the same font as the other eight items on my list and are not parks or other open spaces. |
