Overview

Explore Millionaire’s Row on a guided walking tour of Fifth Avenue’s Gilded Age mansions, both surviving and lost to time. Discover stunning architecture and captivating stories about the wealthy families, their deals, and the scandals that shaped this iconic era. While many mansions are now private residences or institutions, we’ll visit two that are open to the public. The tour is mostly outdoors, covering 1.3 miles. We’ll begin at the General Sherman statue, between 59th and 60th Streets, and end at the Met Museum on 80th Street. Experience the glamour and intrigue of the Gilded Age as you walk the very avenue where history was made
