My experience at The New York Aquarium was mixed.

My experience at The New York Aquarium was mixed.
Pros:
-Nice variety of Fish and other marine creatures
-Exhibits well done
-Easy to Navigate
-Clean and well maintained grounds
-Family friendly
-Near Public transportation

Cons:
-Overpriced for what you actually get. (About $32 usd for adults and $28 usd for children under 12
-Small Facilities
- Unfriendly and disengaged staff.
-Half of the exhibitions closed
-Cafeteria closed and lack of sitting areas to eat.
-A bit out of the way, you spend more time getting there than what you actually see.
-Neighborhood dead outside summer months.
Most shops and food closed.

While The Marine life was beautiful, I did not find The aquarium worth visiting. It took more time getting there, than what they had showing.
If you Happen to be in the area and love marine then maybe visit.
