New York Public Library (Rise of the TMNT)

New York Public Library as it appears in Rise of the TMNT.

The New York Public Library is a real life public library serving the New York City boroughs of Manhattan, the Bronx and Staten Island. It is the second largest public library in the United States (after the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C.), and the third largest on Earth after the British Library in London. The New York Public Library's New York Public Library Main Branch in Midtown Manhattan is famous for the pair of stone lions just outside its front entrance.

Rise of the TMNT[]

The Main Branch fictionally appears in the Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles episode "Mystic Library". After Mayhem was magically trapped inside the bathroom mirror of April O'Neil's apartment and his body started to fade away, Donatello suggested he and his brothers visit the Public Library to look for any books escaping magical prisons. The Mad Dogs snuck into the library after hours, and Donnie's mystic-detecting goggles quickly located a magical book. But the book itself was not what they were looking for, but was itself a mystical portal that pulled the brothers to another location altogether—the Mystic Library.
