Description

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
Spyscape opened in February 2018. It features 7 main experience zones, as well as a James Bond exhibition, 007xSpyscape.

The "dark, labyrinthine interior" occupies two levels inside a glass box building in midtown Manhattan.

The gallery themes include:

Encryption, which focuses on the cryptanalysts who cracked the German Enigma machine in WWII;
Deception, which takes visitors through the FBI’s hunt for KGB mole Robert Hanssen;
Surveillance, a 360-degree room that presents a closer look at Edward Snowden;
Hacking, an emoji-filled gallery highlighting the Anonymous (group);
Cyberwarfare, which focus on Stuxnet;
Special Ops, which focuses on WWII spy gadgets and SOE Officer Virginia Hall; and
Intelligence, which examines the how espionage and analysis shaped the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Visitors have the opportunity to test their own skills with various ‘challenges’ throughout the galleries - assessing traits from empathy and agility, to personality, brain power, and risk tolerance. The final gallery is Debrief, where visitors receive the results of their tests and challenges, and are assigned a spy role.

007xSpyscape - the first official James Bond exhibit in New York City - opened March 2019 in Spyscape’s south gallery. The focal point of the exhibit is the actual Aston Martin DB5 that was driven by Pierce Brosnan in the film GoldenEye.
