Riverside Drive is best known for elegance and quiet. But behind its serene facades lie secrets, from intriguing design details to headline-making crimes. This in-person tour will reveal architectural surprises and scandalous stories, alike, including hidden passageways, “spite walls,” the Drive’s only privately owned freestanding mansion, and “a slum with a view.” Along the way you’ll hear about a murderous dentist, a famous mistress, an “imprisoned” husband, and more.
