There are more than 800 paintings, sculptures, photographs and works on paper in the museum's permanent collection.
Feast your eyes on a little piece of history at the Snug Harbor Cultural Center & Botanical Garden. This attraction is a collection of architecturally significant buildings from the 19th century and was once a home for sailors. The 83-acre Snug Harbor is comprised of 26 buildings, built in the styles of Greek Revival, Beaux Arts, Italianate and Victorian. This National Historic Landmark District is considered to be the "crown jewel" of Staten Island.
Another of New York City's famous landmarks, Trinity Church is a must-see work of architectural beauty.

The church is still operating today, offering a full schedule of prayer and Eucharistic services and hosting weddings and baptisms. Trinity Church also features a museum showcasing the history of the church, changing art, and religious and cultural exhibits.
