8 West 40th Street is the home of Tesla's last laboratory in NYC. It's located near Bryant Park where, in his aging years, he would feed pigeons and bring ailing ones to his house to nurse them back to health. On the corner of West 40th Street and the Avenue of the Americas (6th Avenue) there is a street sign memorializing Tesla "Nikola Tesla Corner".
