Wardenclyffe is located near the Shoreham Post Office and Shoreham Fire House on Route 25A in Shoreham, Long Island, New York. Wardenclyffe was divided into two main sections. The tower, which was located in the back, and the main building now compose the entire facility grounds. At one time the property was about 200 acres (0.81 km2). Now it consists of slightly less than 16 acres (65,000 m2).
Description

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:
Wardenclyffe Tower (1901–1917), also known as the Tesla Tower, was an early experimental wireless transmission station designed and built by Nikola Tesla on Long Island in 1901–1902.

A grassroots campaign to save the site succeeded in purchasing the property in 2013, with plans to build a future museum dedicated to Nikola Tesla. In 2018 the property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The center plans to offer several programs, including science teacher associations, conferences, symposia, field trips, associations with science competitions, and other science programs.

Planned permanent exhibits include a Tesla exhibit, exploratorium-type exhibits, and a living museum.

Our Mission
To develop the site of Nikola Tesla’s last remaining laboratory into a transformative global science center that embraces his bold spirit of invention, provides innovative learning experiences, fosters the advancement of new technologies, and preserves his legacy in the Tesla Museum.
Our Vision
A world where people appreciate Nikola Tesla’s contributions, are inspired by his scientific audacity, and engage in the future betterment of humanity.

Since the restoration of the grounds, some elements of Wardenclyffe are now visible from outside of the fence:

• Tower base where Tesla’s iconic transmitting tower once stood at 187 feet tall
• The brick laboratory building
• Statue of Nikola Tesla donated by the People’s Republic of Serbia
• Two information kiosks outside the fence by the statue provide additional information and photos.
