Why are horses found in a small discreet building in NYC?

  1. For tourist entertainment

  2. For historical reenactments

  3. As part of a museum exhibit

  4. NYC Police department uses horses

The correct answer is: NYC Police department uses horses

Horses are typically found in a small discreet building in NYC because the NYC Police Department uses them. The NYPD has a mounted unit that uses horses for various purposes, including crowd control, patrolling parks, and engaging with the community. These horses are stabled in a discreet building in the city to provide them with proper care and shelter when they are not on duty. This practice is not related to tourist entertainment, historical reenactments, or as part of a museum exhibit.
