Homes in Prospect Heights

The Prospect Heights House Tour is your opportunity to experience the beauty and magic of the historic 19th century architecture of Prospect Heights, and see how it's being reimagined for the 21st century.

Highlights of the 2007 Prospect Heights House Tour include six wonderful brownstone rowhouses:

• an Italianate beauty whose brownstone facade has been restored with real stone;
• a triple parlor with new kitchen featuring high-end custom cabinetry;
• a house with mid-century modern furnishings throughout and that includes a children's book illustrator's studio;
• a neo-Grec "cheater" with much original woodwork, now newly restored;
• a "green" renovation in progress using reclaimed materials; and
• a very modern renovation of an abandoned shell;

plus two special Newswalk apartments with bright, modern interiors and very different layouts--and wonderful views!
