I've been to the museum when it was in Harlem and it had a really amazing collection (with a high percentage on display.) I hope that they carry that over on the new space.

I thought this was supposed to be in lower Manhattan at the customs house? I remember seeing a small exhibit there a few years ago. Anyone know why it moved?
