A decommissioned WWII aircraft carrier permanently docked on the Hudson River, now housing aircraft, a space shuttle pavilion with the actual Enterprise orbiter, and a Cold War-era submarine you can tour. It's genuinely impressive in scale and the exhibits are well-produced, especially for kids and aviation enthusiasts. Admission is expensive and the outdoor decks are exposed to weather, so check the forecast before visiting.
