Finding the ANS
75 Varick Street
Floor 11
New York, NY 10013
By Subway
1 red-line train, Canal Street Station
A, C, or E blue-line trains, Canal Street Station
On-street, metered parking is very limited on Varick Street, but there are local parking garages within walking distance. We recommend arriving by public transportation or taxi.
Upon entering 75 Varick Street (also called One Hudson Square), go to the reception desk, present your government-issued photo ID, and tell the receptionist that you are visiting the American Numismatic Society. They will give you a visitor pass that you must wear during your visit. Take the elevator to the 11th floor and proceed to the guard station at the American Numismatic Society to check-in.
To ensure every visitor enjoys the best possible visit and that staff will be available to meet your needs, appointments are required for all visitors.
The ANS has a very small display gallery with four cases. To schedule a visit to view the gallery space, email membership@numismatics.org or call 212-571-4470, ext. 117
To schedule a visit to the curatorial department, email curatorial@numismatics.org
To schedule a visit to the library, email library@numismatics.org
All visitors are required to present a government-issued photo ID when checking in. Visitors are limited in terms of access to the ANS premises, the items they can have with them in the curatorial viewing room, and are subject to electronic and in-person surveillance. Note that curatorial visits are typically limited to two hours per day.
