One Astor Plaza

Miniature World is an immersive gallery experience exhibiting architectural models of landmarks from around the world. Set atop waist-high tables, the technologically advanced display incorporates functional model trains, dramatic figurine scenes, and even mobile cars with traffic patterns. The various models include landscapes of Asia, Latin America, Russia, Africa, Europe, the Middle East, and New York City.

As a highlight of the New York City model One Astor Plaza is a 72” tall illuminated model of a famous Times Square building. Equipped with miniature figurines, elaborate interiors, LED ceiling lights, and miniature functional screens, the high level of detail makes it among the most intricate models in the exhibit.
