The Riverside Yacht Club, Connecticut is a private, recreational yacht club located in the Riverside neighborhood of Greenwich, Connecticut, with access to Long Island Sound. The majority of its members are residents of the surrounding Greenwich neighborhoods of Riverside, Old Greenwich, and Cos Cob. It is the second oldest yacht club in Connecticut and one of the oldest in the United States.
The Riverside Yacht Club was founded in 1888 by George I. Tyson, a prominent and wealthy summer resident of Riverside, CT, and the owner of the yacht Nirvana. Using his own money and waterfront property, Tyson built the original Victorian-style clubhouse in 1889 on the eastern shore of Cos Cob Harbor near the entrance of the Mianus River. Tyson became the first Commodore, a post he held for eight years.
