In The Catcher in the Rye, Holden likes places that do not change. Since the death of his brother Allie, Holden has a hard time dealing with change and wishes that life would just stay the same. So, he likes places that are the same as they were during his childhood. For example, Holden likes the Museum of Natural History because the exhibits are the same as they were when his teachers used to take the students in elementary school. Thinking about seeing his sister Phoebe, Holden walks over to the museum and reminisces on the exhibits that never change, like the one showcasing Native American Indians. If places like these never change, then Holden does not have to say goodbye to the old and usher in new places.
