In the window they had beautiful display of jewelry, realism well done quality portrait and plants. Also I believe there was a sign that they do portraits on commission. So I thought ok, it must be artist's studio and an art gallery . We were greeted with welcome hello and if we have a question, to feel free to ask? We looked around I was wowed by beautiful, quality, artisan made jewelry and craft. Prices were very reasonable. Space was spacious and welcoming. I saw artwork that one of my friends might be very interested to purchase. I ask the owner (who greeted us) about that piece. He told us all about it, the process of work, materials and background of the artist. I highly recommend to visit this gallery, great energy, quality artwork and friendly owner (no snobbish attitude staff that you might encounter in NYC galleries).

Thank you, Manuel and Maria, for knowing the value of good service!

I was initially drawn to the impressive dollhouse, but there are also so many other cool paintings, sculptures, and photographs here. The museum building itself is very bright and welcoming. Check out the courtyard, too, where there were some lawn games over the summer. We also explored the education center, which seems to have an ongoing activities for kids. Next time I visit, I'll check out the planetarium!

In the HBO drama "The Gilded Age," the characters are keenly aware that they live in interesting times, and this establishment was featured as Mrs. Astor's home. Built for millionaire banker John Bond Trevor and his family, Glenview Mansion has been painstakingly restored by the Hudson River Museum, which is a hidden gem located in Yonkers. Guided tours are offered to six fully restored rooms (Great Hall, Sitting Room, Parlor, Dining Room, Ebony Library, and Billiard Room), which my partner and I had the pleasure of today at $20 per adult and can be purchased on their website. Since his primary residence was in NYC, this 19th-century seasonal home was used from April to December each year and sits on a 23-acre estate. The owner commuted into his office on Wall Street in New York City, about 23 miles away. Upon entering the mansion, it showcases late Victorian with the colorful tiles on the floor, the high ceilings, and the furniture and fixtures such as the Tiffany and Co. grandfather clock, a Victorian recliner chair, or the storybook tiles over the fireplace in the Great Hallway. The original home featured a wraparound balcony that could be accessed through the Sitting Room, but it was later removed in order to lower maintenance costs. Besides the mansion, the museum is a complex of galleries that present changing art exhibitions, a permanent Hudson River School collection, a planetarium, an amphitheater, and educational spaces for all ages. The staff was friendly. The interior was very well kept and organized. With great views of the Hudson River, this is a relatively short day trip, which we can recommend.
