10 Lost Mansions  of NYC Riverside Drive
Everyone talks about the famous Fifth Ave as if it was the only millionaire’s row in Manhattan.
Everyone talks of its glitzy past and its lost mansions. But it seems we forgot about one other avenue?
Once upon a time in old New York, gilded palaces adorned all of Riverside Drive, as it was one of the city’s most coveted addresses. It was a boulevard of freestanding mansions, sprawling estates, and glittering castles, each with their own legacy. Each with their own style.

Unlike those on the cramped 5th ave, the millionaires on Riverside drive had plenty of room to spread out. And spread out, they did. All the way up to the tip of the island.
Today we are taking you through some of the most jaw dropping properties that once stood on this formerly suburban side of town. And though we will only have scratched the surface, you will be amazed at what we found.
So without further ado, here are our top 10 Lost Mansions  of NYC Riverside Drive.
