Building Description

Built between 1902 and 1904, the Whitehall Building retains much of its original turn-of-the-century charm but offers residents modern amenities as well. This residential building was designed by the famous architect Henry J. Hardenbergh and is one of the most visible and memorable buildings in the Financial District. The original building was such a success that from 1908 - 1910 a 31-story tower, named Greater Whitehall, was built overlooking the original building. This tower was the largest office structure in New York City when it was built.

The facade is elegant limestone, and the design is based on a neo-Renaissance style that includes a traditional base, shaft, and capital that complements the structure itself. It was designated as an individual landmark in 2000 and is within two miles of an elementary school, a middle school, and a high school. The closest subway station is Broadway & Battery Park at the Northwest Corner, which services the 4 and 5 subway lines, and is 450 feet away from the Whitehall Building.
