The Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation works to
protect the cultural and architectural heritage of Greenwich Village,
NoHo, and the East Village. Now in its thirtieth year, GVSHP has
secured unprecedented achievements for our communities through
advocacy, education, and documentation.
Offering a rare glimpse into six of Greenwich Village’s finest
and most exclusive townhouses, the Twelfth Annual Village House Tour
Benefit is held to raise funds in support of GVSHP’s work to
educate about and advocate for the distinctive character and
irreplaceable architecture of our neighborhoods.
