Kips Bay NY 2023
River Mansion: built in 1902, this stately home has just gotten a huge makeover
Irwin Viner - With the pandemic in our rear-view mirrors now, we can resume delightful social activities like New York’s Kips Bay Decorator Show House. After a three-year pause, the venue showcasing fine design talent has jumped from Manhattan’s Upper East Side to the Upper West Side, colonizing a splendid Beaux-Arts mansion at 337 Riverside Drive and West 106th Street.
For the uninitiated, the showhouse raises funds for the Kips Bay Boys & Girls Club. We encourage you to purchase your ticket to the showhouse, which will help this wonderful cause. Click here for more information about the showhouse and how you can plan your visit (the showhouse is open from May 11 through June 6).
