The former International Shoe Company downtown is home to City Museum, a giant playhouse catering to kids and adults alike. More than 600,000 square feet of attractions spur the imagination and the mind.
Don’t Miss:
MONSTROCITY offers a castle turret, fire engine and two Saber 40 aircraft fuselages, all connected by a network of metal pathways. The result is a jungle gym that’s fit for anyone with a sense of adventure.
ENCHANTED CAVES, a maze of stairways and cavernous corridors lined with sculptures and dragons, lie underneath the museum’s main level. Twists and turns provide ample opportunities for exploring.
A WIDE WORLD of other experiences are around every corner, ranging from the World Aquarium to Art City, a historic Shoelace Factory and a giant ball pit, to name only a few. Found objects, surreal sculptures and playful creations await!
