New Look for Former Mansion Clam House

Workmen were busy today removing the siding of the former Mansion Clam House, 541 Riverside Ave., in preparation for the debut there of Parker Mansion, a steak house. No date for the opening has been announced. Owner Patrick Fahy owns Parker Steaks & Scotch in Trumbull and Parker Eatery & Bar in Stratford. Mansion Clam House closed in October 2014 after having been there since 1958 on the site of a former “fried clam shack.” The property, which includes the adjoining Julian’s Brick Oven Pizza, changed hands in April 2014 for $2.1 million. The listing said the building was built in 1900. (CLICK TO ENLARGE) Bob Eckman for WestportNow.com
