Reading the House: A Close Look at the Architecture of the Fabbri Mansion
With William Higgins, historic preservation consultant
Wednesday, March 1, 6:30 p.m.
House of the Redeemer, 7 East 95th Street, Manhattan
One of New York's most unusual residential buildings, the Fabbri Mansion (now the House of the Redeemer) contains some of the city's most beautifully detailed interiors. A rich record of the sensibilities of its architect and its builders, the House is a fascinating example of the influence of the Italian Renaissance in the U.S. The speaker - a founding partner of Higgins Quasebarth & Partners, a historic preservation consulting firm - will look closely at the features which give the house its very particular identity, and through them endeavor to understand better what makes the House "tick" as a piece of historic architecture.
