Stonehurst Place


I just had the wonderful opportunity to stay in a new green B&B called Stonehurst Place in the heart of Midtown. Owner Barb Shadomy took 17 months to restore and renovate this historic property to its full potential. The Earthcraft-certified design is an eclectic mix: think vintage pieces, Andy Warhol original sketches and mid-century modern designs. She also has greywater and water reclamation systems, xeriscaping, low-VOC paints and solar panels. Organic breakfast is included, and dogs are welcome! Check it out for a vacation in the city, or recommend the space for visiting friends and relatives.
