RESTORED PRE-WAR ONE-BEDROOM GEM IN THE HISTORIC WHITBY Seize this rare opportunity to own a beautifully restored one-bedroom sanctuary in The Whitby, a legendary pre-war building steeped in history. Once home to icons like Doris Day, Betty Grable, George Burns, and even Al Capone, this architectural masterpiece by Emery Roth (The San Remo, The Beresford) exudes timeless charm while offering modern comforts.
This serene home, part of the largest one-bedroom line in the building, has been meticulously transformed to preserve its 1920s character while incorporating thoughtful contemporary upgrades.

The expansive living room is a showstopper, featuring refinished original oak floors, beamed ceilings, crown moldings, and oversized Western-facing windows that flood the space with natural light. The windowed kitchen, redesigned for both style and efficiency, boasts custom white wood cabinetry, a glass tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, and a granite-topped breakfast bar with extra storage—ideal for seamless entertaining. The windowed bathroom retains its vintage charm, complete with a reglazed classic soaking tub. The spacious, sunlit bedroom, with Southern and Western exposures, offers a peaceful retreat enhanced by elegant, wainscoted walls. Ample customized closet space, including two walk-ins, ensures effortless storage.
