PARAISONG MAY ISANG SILID-TULUGAN, ITINAYO BAGO ANG DIGMAAN

Ang maluwag na santuwaryong may isang silid-tulugan, nasa mataas na palapag, ay matatagpuan sa makasaysayan at misteryosong Whitby, kung saan ginugol ng mga kilalang personalidad ng ika-20 siglo tulad nina Doris Day, George Burns at Al Capone ang kanilang mga araw at gabi. Ang tahimik na tahanang ito sa ika-6 na palapag, na nakatago sa isang alcove sa pasilyo para sa higit na pribasiya, ay maingat na inayos upang mapanatili ang mga hinahangaang detalye noong dekada 1920, habang nag-aalok ng kaginhawahan ng makabagong pamumuhay.

Ang pasilyo sa entrada ay maliwanag, mahaba at kapansin-pansin, at madaling pagkasyahan ng malawak na dingding para sa aklatan, nakasabit na galeriya ng sining, o episyenteng opisina sa bahay. Sasalubungin ka nito patungo sa maluwag na sala na may mararangal na sahig na yari sa maitim na oak, mga kisameng may biga at crown molding. Ang malalaking bintanang nakaharap sa timog ay nagsasala ng napakagandang liwanag at nag-aalok ng kaakit-akit na tanawin ng skyline ng lungsod, na lalong kahanga-hanga pagsapit ng gabi.

Ang kusinang may bintana ay binuksan at nilagyan ng built-in na breakfast bar, mga countertop na granite at mga pasadyang kabinet na yari sa kahoy. Ang maluwag na banyo ay nasa perpektong lokasyon sa pagitan ng sala at silid-tulugan, kaya mainam para sa mga bisita. May bintana rin ito at pinaganda sa pamamagitan ng soaking tub, pedestal sink ng Kohler at mga kabit na Toto. Ang malaking silid-tulugan, na hiwalay sa sala sa pamamagitan ng foyer, ay nag-aalok ng tahimik na pribasiya at hitik sa liwanag mula sa timog.

Ang Whitby, na tanyag na itinampok sa New York Times, ay dinisenyo ng kinikilalang arkitektong si Emery Roth (The San Remo, The Beresford) at natapos noong 1923. Ang maringal na gusaling ito na may 217 yunit, na kilala sa kahanga-hangang tatlong matitibay na bay at alun-along cornice na ladrilyo, ay matatagpuan sa West 45th Street sa pagitan ng 8th at 9th Avenues, sa gitna ng tanyag na distrito ng teatro ng NYC.

Ang Whitby ay isang full-service co-op at nagtatampok ng isa sa pinakakahanga-hangang roof deck sa Midtown West, na may 360-degree na malayang tanawin ng lungsod. Kabilang sa mga amenidad ang doorman na 24/7, bagong laundry room, imbakan, bike room, FIOS at isang maringal na lobby na may inspirasyong Art Deco at bagong ayos. Maginhawa itong puntahan mula sa lahat ng pangunahing transportasyon at malapit sa napakaraming restawran, café at lugar ng libangan.
