The Bridge at Topping Rose House
Classic, collectible, luxury motorcars on view in the Hamptons.
It was a Parking Lot in Paradise. Arrayed on the green lawns of Topping Rose House, two dozen shiny, classic collectible luxury motorcars were on exhibit for a ticketed garden gathering. Visitors browsed among the vehicles and sponsor displays while sampling seasonal cuisine prepared by Chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten and enjoying jazz music. With proceeds going to the Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons, it was a fitting conclusion to the Bridge IX weekend which celebrates the golden era of motorsport.
