About Manitoga
📍 ⛅ Partly cloudy 19°C now
Manitoga was the estate and modernist home of industrial designer Russel Wright (1904–1976) and his wife Mary Small Einstein Wright. It is located along New York State Route 9D south of Garrison, New York, a short distance north of the Bear Mountain Bridge. Wright named his synthesis of architecture and nature "Manitoga", after Algonquin words meaning "place of great spirit". Built between 1941 and 1961, the home, studio, and surrounding woodland garden are collectively known as Dragon Rock. They were designed to convey Wright's ideas about living in harmony with nature.
