Gracie Mansion

Archibald Gracie's Federal-style home served as his country residence in 1799. Since 1942, it has been the official residence of the mayors of New York City (except for Michael Bloomberg who chose to stay in his own home). The house has been expanded and modernized over the years. To explore its interior, you will have to book an hour-long tour held once a week (with fewer tours during the holiday season).
