Greek Revival-style country residence of NYC businessman Robert Bartow and family. Both a New York City and a National Landmark, Bartow-Pell Mansion Museum is home to one of the most beautifully situated historic houses in the city. The museum welcomes thousands of visitors each year for guided and group tours, education programs for children, garden strolls and trail hikes, and a variety of special events. Built between 1836 and 1842, the Bartow-Pell Mansion Museum exemplifies a type of country living that existed in the Pelham Bay Park area in the early 19th Century. Officially open as a museum since 1946, Bartow-Pell Mansion Museum's mansion, gardens and landscape offer visitors a source of serenity in the urban landscape.
