One of the greatest living works of art, Wave Hill's 28-acre property is renowned for its award-winning botanical gardens, historic mansions once occupied by Theodore Roosevelt, Arturo Toscanini, and Mark Twain, and breath-taking views of the Hudson River and the Palisades.

Built in 1843 and established as a non-profit organization in 1965, Wave Hill is dedicated to celebrating the artistry and legacy of its gardens and landscapes, to preserving its magnificent views, and to exploring human connections to the natural world through programs in horticulture, education, and the arts. It is one of 34 New York City-owned cultural institutions.

Located in the Riverdale section of The Bronx ”minutes from Manhattan, Westchester, and Northern New Jersey”, Wave Hill is a uniquely beautiful setting for any event. Outside, guests gather on the enchanting Great Lawn for a picturesque wedding ceremony. Inside, the mansion is reminiscent of an English country house with marvelous spaces for Seated Dinners and Meetings, including the Romanesque-style Armor Hall with high-vaulted beam ceilings and cathedral windows. In an adjacent space, the Mark Twain Room provides a warm atmosphere, featuring wood paneling and fabric wall coverings as well as French windows and doors that open onto the Terrace. On the second floor of the Wave Hill House, the light-filled Toscanini Room is the perfect spot to hold corporate or non-profit meetings, conferences, and daytime retreats.
