Once the home to William Goadby Loew and his wife, Florence Baker Loew, 56 East 93rd Street sits between Madison and Park Avenues in Manhattan’s Carnegie Hill neighborhood of the Upper East Side. The regency style mansion was built by architects Stewart Walker and Leon Gilette with its interiors designed by Sybil Walker in 1932 and was the last private palace to be erected in New York City. America has always been a sort of melting pot of cultures, races, and religions and its design of interiors distinctly portrays artisans learning from one another and incorporating foreign ideas and techniques to create something beautiful. Today America stands truly divided, arguably even tribal, separated by culture, language, religion, and politics; it is possibly more important than ever to find something which aids not only to unite but also to reflect our American identity, and the Narcissa attempts to serve as a symbol of such unity and vehicle of reflection.
