The frontal facade of the Libertonian Museum.

The Libertonian is a museum in Grand Theft Auto IV based on the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Description

The museum is located on the eastern edge of Middle Park (similar to the Met's location in Central Park), fronting Columbus Avenue and Middle Park East, Algonquin, Liberty City. At the time of the game's setting, the musuem is under renovation and is closed to the general public. It features various pieces of historic exhibits (some of which are yet to be unpacked or are covered), as well as skeletons of three dinosaurs in the main lobby.

At any time, the player may gain access into the building through a side door on the southern side of the museum, through a path that leads to the museum floor. The lobby and the mezzanine, and loading backrooms are the only areas inside the museum that are accessible, but the player may also reach the rooftop of the museum on foot via a series of scaffolding outside the museum, on the west side of the building. As the museum is closed to the public, the front doors are locked.

The Libertonian's name could be a play of "Smithsonian".
