The Noguchi Museum was designed and built by Japanese-American artist Isamu Noguchi. The 24,000-square-foot two-story museum and its attached sculpture garden are located in Long Island City, a block from the Socrates Sculpture Park. It was renovated in 2004 and is now open all year round. In 1974, when he decided to build a museum, Noguchi bought a gas station and a photogravure plant located just across the street from his studio in New York, where he had lived and worked since 1961. The museum opened to the public in 1985 with the purpose to showcase and preserve Noguchi's sculptures, stage designs, architectural models, drawings, and furniture designs. It currently has 12 galleries and a gift shop.
