Some regular Scout Report readers may be asking the question: "How do you fit an entire skyscraper online?" Well, the people at the Skyscraper Museum in Battery Park have done just that, and have even found room for a few virtual exhibits and some great material on the World Trade Center Memorial project. The museum itself was founded in 1996 and is an "educational corporation devoted to the study of high-rise building, past, present, and future." On the site, visitors can find out how to visit the museum, read about its current exhibits, and peruse rather well-designed Web projects. All told, there are four Web projects here, including the Banker's Trust Virtual Archive, which contains important historic photographs of the construction and demolition of a number of notable buildings in Manhattan.
