The Wilbraham is a stunning, landmarked, pre-war co-op building located in the heart of NoMad. It was built in 1890 by prominent Scottish-American jeweler William Moir and was designed by D. & J. Jardine. The handsome, eight story building once served as a bachelor’s hotel and was an annex of the nearby Waldorf Astoria. The Wilbraham is an extraordinarily well-detailed reflection of the Romanesque Revival style, with its exterior featuring a splendid combination of Philadelphia brick, Belleville brownstone, cast iron, and copper-covered mansard roof. An iconic cast-iron staircase connects all levels. The building was awarded landmark designation in 2004.

The building is impeccably maintained. The gorgeous lobby was fully renovated and restored in 2017, it features beautiful mosaic tiles, mahogany wainscoting, stained glass chandelier lighting, also a stunning Orientalist mural which dates back to around 1935. A modern spacious elevator serves all floors. One can find the laundry room and storage locker in the basement.

The building is located at the northern part of NoMad neighborhood, surrounded by cultural landmarks like Madison Square Park, SoHo House Ned, Ritz Carlton hotel and Empire State Building. NoMad is home for many of best restaurants in the world like Eleven Madison Park, ATOMIX and Keens Steakhouse, the list goes on. Newly opened Whole Foods Market, H-Mart and Eataly make grocery shopping full of fun and surprises. Several subway lines are at your finger tip including BDFM and NRQW, 123 and 6 lines.
