Slide Tour NYC
To celebrate the launch of our Slide Floor Lamp at Assembly Line in Brooklyn, we created the NYC Slide Tour: A map of fast or fascinating slides around New York City.
We've long been admirers of sculpture slides around the world. For this tour, we found eight worthy stops throughout the boroughs to see and experience all things slide related, from the longest slide (on Governors Island) to a Slide Trumpet from the late 1800s (at the Met).
View the map & find out what's on our tour below.
Not local? There's still a lot to see.
