The Wonder
Tribeca, NY

The Wonder is an absurdly playful members space for curious, imaginative families. It is a space for recreation, experiences, and human connection for all ages.

The days are long and the years are short- let’s make the most of it.

Located in Tribeca, NY, The Wonder is a project built by okidoki that places children into a place far away from the confines of the city. From a launching rocket to a space station to call back home, The Wonder is a place for joyful families and joyful mind!

“When I was a child in the Midwest I used to go out and look at the stars at night and wonder about them.

I guess every child has done that. When I wasn't looking at the stars, I was running in my old or my brand-new tennis shoes, on my way to swing in a tree, swim in a lake, or delve in the town library to read about dinosaurs or Time Machines. I guess every child has done that, too. This is about those stars and those tennis shoes. Mainly about the stars, because that is the way I grew up, getting more and more involved with rockets and space as I moved toward my twelfth, thirteenth, and fourteenth years. Not that I have forgotten the tennis shoes and their powerful magic…which I have included not because it concerns the Future, but be-cause it gives you some sort of idea of the kind of child I was when I was looking at the stars and thinking of the Years Ahead. Nor have I forgotten the dinosaurs that all children love; they are here, too, along with a Machine that travels back in Time to step on a butterfly. This is then by a child who grew up in a small Illinois town and lived to see the Space Age arrive, as he hoped and dreamt it would.”
