About this Event

Located on a peninsula overlooking the Hudson River, Edgewater is an early 19th-century mansion restored by preservationist Richard Hampton Jenrette. Now overseen by the Richard Hampton Jenrette Foundation, the estate embodies Jenrette’s vision of keeping historic homes alive and accessible to the public.


For this “Summer Friday” field trip, Ben Prosky, president of the Richard Hampton Jenrette Foundation, hosts a special tour and reception for guests from Open House New York and the Preservation League of New York State. Join us to peek inside this Federal era architectural gem.
