Spyscape stands in Midtown Manhattan as an interactive museum dedicated to the unseen world of intelligence and secret operations. The facility occupies sixty thousand square feet of space designed by the acclaimed architect Sir David Adjaye, known for his work on the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture. Instead of static glass cases, the experience is built around seven thematic galleries that cover fields like encryption, surveillance, and cyber warfare. Visitors use wearable technology to track their progress through various challenges, which are designed to test traits like risk tolerance and observation. The entire curriculum for these activities was developed alongside former intelligence trainers and psychologists to provide a grounded, if entertaining, assessment of your own potential spy profile.
