Step back into the Victorian era at the Hoyt Sherman Place. Originally built in 1877 as a manor home, a theater was added in 1923 and the structure is now a multi-purpose facility. Visitors can take a guided tour and see an impressive 17th century furnishings collection, as well as several 19th and 20th century art pieces. The tour of the house includes the entrance hall, parlor, library and dining room, as well as a Victorian bed and sitting room. The theater schedules a variety of performances that range from musical performances by groups like the Vienna Boys Choir to folk singers like Joan Baez.   (© 10Best)
