Default woodworking stuff to do in New York City

We’ll soon be going to NYC. I plan on stopping by Brooklyn Tool and Craft
(yipee) and probably buy more than I should. Where else should I go that
woodworking related (stores, museums …)?

Many of the New York, NY museum listings here include either "All" or "Wood"
in the medium description. Perhaps you could find one that is having a
wood-specific exhibit during the time you'll be in the area.

This might be worth a tour if you are nearby...

Go to Central Park. Will you have your chainsaw with you?

I would encourage you to visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art on 5th Ave around 82nd St. The American wing has many works of fine furniture. Don't miss the Gubbio room. (It's a little hard to find, ask for help.) I have been there many times and the marquetry there still amazes me.
