Sparkman & Stephens are pleased to announce that after 82 years of continuous operation in New York City, their New York design and brokerage office has relocated to Greenwich, Connecticut. Mention Greenwich, Connecticut, anywhere and chances are most people will have heard of it. It is the premier town along what is often referred to as the Connecticut Gold Coast. The town’s unique beauty lies within its preservation of colonial history, with rolling hills, vast woodlands, sprawling meadows and picturesque shorelines. Access to Long Island Sound is by the idyllic Cos Cob Harbor, Smith Cove, Indian Harbor and Greenwich Harbor.

The town is home to many well-known artists, writers, actors and sports figures along with top to middle management corporate executives and leaders in the worlds of finance and communications. In addition, Greenwich Avenue is the epicenter of the finest collection of restaurants, rivaling those in Manhattan, and offers luxury shopping on what is sometimes referred to as the Rodeo Drive of the East.
Sparkman & Stephens principal motivation for the move is to be closer to the sailing communities and boat yards of Long Island Sound and New England and also where many of their clients spend their leisure time, rather than their working hours. It will also move us that much closer to our Newport, Rhode Island office.
Located only thirty miles from Manhattan, transportation is made simple via interstate 95, the Merritt Parkway, and Metro North Railroad. Express trains from New York City’s Grand Central Terminal are 45 minutes in duration. For air travelers, Westchester County Airport is just minutes away. LaGuardia and JFK airports are also within easy reach.
