Growing Pains for New York's Italian American Museum

The Italian American Museum in New York's Little Italy has outgrown its current space in a restored 1800's brownstone. Plans include selling the building to a developer, and then relocating the museum into an expanded space inside the structure that replaces the brownstone. The museum's current location on the corner of Mulberry and Grand Streets once housed “Banca Stabile”, which served newly arrived immigrants from Italy.
