Discover SNFL! Tour the Building with Library Staff

Discover SNFL!

Designed to inspire, building highlights include:

• The only free, publicly accessible rooftop terrace in Midtown
• A dramatic “Long Room” with 42-foot-high atrium
• Commissioned public art celebrating creativity and curiosity

Located at the site of the former Mid-Manhattan Library, the completely transformed Stavros Niarchos Foundation Library (SNFL) reopened in June 2021 thanks to a generous gift from the Stavros Niarchos Foundation and support from the City of New York.

Spaces are limited for this in-person event. Registration is required for this free 60-minute tour.

All events are subject to change or cancellation.
