What people say, in short
Visitors recommend the Guggenheim, and two single out the building itself: one suggests checking out its exterior, and another calls the building art, with works inside. One visitor mentions a Jenny Holzer show, and another wonders why nobody mentions it and calls it a cool spot. One visitor thinks it is probably stronger than the Brooklyn Museum.
