The Greenwich Historical Society opened its reimagined campus, 1740 National Historic Landmark Bush-Holley House and the cradle of American Impressionism, in October 2018. Not only does the home showcase its 18th-century history, but also its period of significance as a boarding house and the seat of the Cos Cob art colony. Noteworthy painters including Childe Hassam, John Henry Twatchtman, Alden Weir, and Elmer McRae boarded and painted there between 1890 and 1920.

The campus reimagining was completed approximately a year ahead of schedule and slightly under budget. Campus highlights include state-of-the-art museum galleries, a curated museum store and artists' cafe, a library and archives, and Impressionist-era flower and vegetable gardens.
