$50 Apts, $10,000 Towers In Model Fund-Raising Scheme

The Queens Museum of Art’s “most famous asset is its 9,335-square-foot scale model of New York City, originally built for the 1964 World’s Fair. The Panorama of the City of New York has 895,000 structures, replicating every street, bridge and skyscraper in the five boroughs.” Under the museum’s new “Adopt-a-Building program … the panorama will evolve gradually along with the city — at least, for those who pay.”
