The Whitby, designed by renowned architect Emery Roth for Bing & Bing in 1924, is a 10-story pre-war cooperative at 325 West 45th Street in Manhattan's Theater District. The beige-brick building features three wings, decorative bandcourses, and an attractive cornice. Originally constructed as the city's first dedicated residential building for artists and performers, it was converted to co-op in 1986 and contains 217 apartments.
The building has a rich cultural history, having housed notable residents including Doris Day, Betty Grable, and Al Capone. Its original amenity of telephone service was particularly valued by actors for casting callbacks in an era when such service was rare. The building maintains its connection to the arts community while being situated in the heart of the Theater District between Eighth and Ninth Avenues.
The Whitby operates as a full-service cooperative with a 24-hour doorman, live-in superintendent, newly renovated lobby, laundry facilities, bicycle storage, and a roof deck offering 360-degree city views. The building allows pied-à-terre use, co-purchasing, and pets. Its location provides convenient access to numerous subway lines including the A, C, E, 1, 2, 3, N, Q, R, W, S, and 7 trains.

For some co-ops, instead of price per square foot, we use an estimate of the number of rooms for each sold apartment to chart price changes over time. This is because many co-op listings do not include square footage information, and this makes it challenging to calculate accurate square-foot averages.
By displaying the price per estimated room count, we are able to provide a more reliable and consistent metric for comparing sales in the building. While we hope that this gives you a clearer sense of price trends in the building, all data should be independently verified. All data provided are only estimates and should not be used to make any purchase or sale decision.
