Greenwich Gate

CSP-170

Greenwich Gate is a cool-toned neutral with gray and beige undertones, offering an LRV of 51.4 that provides moderate light reflection. The color works well in living rooms, bedrooms, and dining areas where a subdued backdrop is needed. It pairs naturally with Benjamin Moore's Gray Owl, Balboa Mist, and Edgecomb Gray for a cohesive neutral scheme, while Hale Navy or Kendall Charcoal can provide stronger contrast when desired.
