41 North

Tuesday night Peter and I were invited to 41 North to meet with Connie Pirrone, the new special events manager for Christies, The Grill and the new boutique hotel to be completed in early spring of 2010.  Connie moved here from NYC this year so, Welcome to Newport, Connie!   She showed us two rooms upstairs at Christies that would be great for rehearsal dinners..very sleek and modern.  Also upstairs are two rentable private residences which are great for the bride and groom or wedding party. On the property as well are two adorable cottages which rent for a modest price in the winter (complete with fireplaces!) and are typically higher in the summer months, but still a great location.  We are looking forward to previewing the new hotel and seeing the wedding reception space on the street level which looks very interesting  from the drawings.   Stay tuned and thanks for a lovely visit, Connie.
