I haven't noticed an Impressionist collection like that at K-Mart, and Mrs. DA really likes the Tiffany glass collection.

But, to each his own.

There are a number of excellent smaller galleries, but I don't think you can go wrong with The Met for a first time visitor because there's a whole lot of stuff under one roof. Otherwise, you're wasting travel time going from one small place to another.

Umm the Frick is across the street. And that entire area has a lot of large museums right next to each other. But I guess the frick, gugg, whitney, cooper hewitt are all small and can't compare to the k-mart art collection. And when someone is done checking out the non-kmart art collections and wants something more fun, the brooklyn museum has a rather fun collection and I think the murakami exhibit is still up.
